Very well equipped accommodation. Hosts were extremely helpful - sorting out a dvd player for us. Short walk up the lane is a good bus link hourly to Barnstable.

Well appointed and comfortable stay in the cottage for our two weeks. Lots of room and a lovely garden by the stream to sit in when the weather is sunny.
