Outstanding! Spacious, warm, comfortable. Extremely well equipped. Lovely towels and bed linen. Excellent WI-FI. Short downhill walk to town centre, past Lidl, and on to the equally outstanding Exchange Coffee Co cafe! Note: Christine and l have rented many holiday cottages, and this one is in the top 2.
