We had a lovely stay. The beds were really comfortable and the living space was really social. We had a curry from Coldstream Spice which was delicious.

The cottage and area are good, but, it took a while to get the heating working.The toilet rolls were nearly empty. The vacuum charge ran out immediately and no charger available.. No sweeping brush to use instead. No tea towels, kitchen roll almost empty.Some milk would be useful.
