The views were undersold and are absolutely spectacular. We can see into the valley and it's breathtaking, this was such a highlight for our stay. We loved the cozy cottage and our group of five was comfortable.

It is up a narrow back road south of the river. Fine if you were seeking a quiet rural location but no good if you were expecting to wander into town for a drink or meal in the evening. The property itself is spacious, bright and tastefully refurbished with a large garden and pleasant sun room. Unfortunately the kitchen equipment provided is very limited and levels of cleanliness could certainly be improved. It is also worth highlighting that there is no Wi-Fi.
