Amazing location, so peaceful and beautiful.Fantastic walks right from the front door through the woods and adjacent farmland.Yet only 5 minutes drive into town or a leisurely 30 minutes walk through the woods.The view from the back is glorious, looking over the mountains.The cottage itself is very comfortable, well equipped and clean.The outdoor space is the best we have ever encountered at a rental, a nice size enclosed garden at the rear with seating and dining areas along with the hot tub.We booked again for next year the day we got home🙂

Beautiful cottage, amazing views. Woods on the doorstep with lots of walks with the dog.Enclosed garden for the dog was perfect. Hot tub a bonus, very peaceful surroundings.Be aware that the road leading up to cottage is quite uneven in places. This however didn’t present us with any issues.Would highly recommend.
