Had a very lovely, relaxed week here.Beautiful, well equipped kitchen and large dining area, cosy sitting room with wood burner, a good sized bathroom, and three decent sized bedrooms.The housekeeper Jannyce is pleasant and most helpful if needed.Rosscot is definitely on our tick list for a return visit.

Lovely cottage that really felt like "home from home" with some nice walks from the doorstep and easy access to some lovely areas. The kitchen was particularly well equipped. There is a TV in the Living room but it is quite small. A bigger TV would be nice :) however we loved the amount of books and in some ways it is nice to have a bit of a break from the outside world.
