When we got there I was surprised at how big it is inside. Itâs done up so nice and looks very modern yet has the feel of a Welsh cottage. The front room is cosy and comfortable and we had so many options of things to watch on the television. The kitchen and dining area is gorgeous, I loved looking at the mountains whilst washing up. It has everything you need in there. The hall downstairs and upstairs is decorated so lovely and the carpet is so soft. At the top of the stairs was my favourite bit of the cottage, a window looking out to the lake and mountains, sometimes we could see the sheep out on the fields, it made me so happy looking out there every morning. The bathroom is lovely and has a big shower. There are three bedrooms, the smallest wasnât actually small, it has a comfortable single bed, dressing table and the best view of the mountains. The middle sized room was lovely with a comfortable double bed, nice furniture and was very cosy. The biggest room has the softest and most comfortable bed I have ever been in, my bed at home feels boring now compared to that amazing King sized bed, I could see fields from my bed which sometimes had horses on. The garden is very relaxing and nice to sit outside. The cottage was so quiet and calm, we all said we would love to have it as our home and would move in straight away. Anyone who is looking for a nice place to stay I would highly recommend this cottage. The owner is lovely and came to check we had everything we needed. We did not want to leave this cottage and we are already looking at dates to come back there
