We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage, it was spotlessly clean, with incredibly comfortable beds and crisp, fresh linen, that made for a great nights sleep. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, making it easy to prepare meals during our stay.The bathroom was small but it’s perfectly functional and has everything you need.One highlight was the fantastic dog walk right on the doorstep, with beautiful countryside to explore. There’s also a lovely little local shop nearby, which was very handy.The cottage is in an excellent location for exploring the surrounding area, with plenty to see and do. Overall, it was a comfortable, relaxing base in a beautiful setting, and we’d be very happy to stay here again.
