A perfect cottage to get away from it all. Extremely well equipped and exceptionally clean and tidy. The location is remote enough to really relax and enjoy the peace and quiet but close enough to local shops to get all of your essentials. We enjoyed cosy evenings curled up in front of the fire and a cup of tea in the morning watching the birds and the ever changing mountain landscape. We were blessed with snow capped mountains and beautiful weather.
