However the property was not as homely as other cottages we have stayed in recently. The WiFi did not work for the duration of our stay and the specified network was not available. We ended up signing into an unsecure Starlink network. The property lacked a few things - a chair in the bedroom, a mirror in the bedroom and an electric shaver point in the bathroom. A table lamp in the living area would have been nice and made the place more homely. Overall a comfortable stay.

And the TV did not work, no channels available. I texted estate manager and owner but no response, maybe those numbers do not receive texts. Other than that it was an enjoyable stay with beautiful scenery.
