Very clean and comfortable and couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you, Sharon, for the very warm welcome and the yummy cake. Also, thanks for the all the local information and history. The cottage is located near so many local treasures and the only regret is that the weekend was not enough.

The cottage was spotlessly clean, cosy, and very well equipped. Thank you, Sharon, for the warm and attentive welcome, delicious home-made cake, coffee, marmelade, etc. ;-) Spindlewood cottage is in a lovely, quiet location - while being close to good shops, restaurants, and other amenities - and there are plenty of interesting places to visit on the doorstep. A great place to stay - and we would love to return at some point!
