Beautiful cottage in a lovely village. Train station close by which was handy to get around if you didn't want to drive. The cottage had everything you woukd need. Local shop was reasonably priced. Only criticism was a lumpy duvet on one of the beds. The garden was small but ideal to relax in at the end if the day.We would highly recommend this cottage, there was plenty of walks and the sunset every evening was enjoyed by all.
