Cottage was immaculate and had everything you could possibly need. Some local walks for the dogs and written routes available in the cottage. It was an enclosed back yard but access was available through to the front of the cottage which meant a bigger dog could jump over the front wall, that said really enjoyed our stay and will be returning.
