We had a lovely week. The cottage is ideal for walking dogs and the enclosed garden was good for them also.Overall the cottage was very comfortable and spacious. One of the beds in the twin room needs a new mattress. The conservatory would benefit for some blinds on the side facing the caravan park mainly for privacy.A must for the kitchen utensils would be oven gloves and tongs. Also a basic first aid kit.Saying all that I would stay there again.
