We had a fabulous time at Newton Cottage! It was such a welcoming and homely space, with everything you would need. Particularly loved being able to enjoy the fire! The perfect, relaxing stay. Katie, the host, was also kind enough to allow us to check out a little later and made sure we had everything we needed. Would love to come back!
