A very sweet little cottage for one or two, not huge but absolutely everything you need is there. A very warm welcome awaited with Welsh cakes and fresh milk, and the cottage itself was warm and cosy. A fenced garden was perfect for our dog and the surrounding countryside is beautiful. Not really suitable if you find stairs difficult or need a shower unit.
