The cottage is wonderful. Spotlessly clean and very high quality furniture. The bed is very comfortable with curtains and blinds to ensure lazy mornings. The kitchen has everything you might need to cook a meal and a dishwasher too. The settees in the living room are so comfortable to sit and watch a DVD or to just stare out of the patio doors to see the most gorgeous views of the countryside and birds. The bathroom has a big bath and a lovely powerful shower with fluffy white towels to dry off afterwards. There's a large dining table and chairs for meals but I mostly used it for drawing and painting. The owner, Rhian is very friendly and helpful. There if we needed anything but unobtrusive too. We have enjoyed our stay very much and hope to return again and again. We couldn't help but relax in the beautiful surroundings. I'm very happy that we booked this very special holiday cottage.
