Hedgehog cottage was so peaceful and the garden a little sun trap, although near two other holiday properties, it was really so private and deadly quiet, so don’t let that out you off. Will definitely stay again at some point, a real gem. Everything you needed and more in terms of equipment and we found a bbq we made the most of! Fran was an excellent host and always friendly and responsive, thank you for having us.
