We had a really lovely week at Magna Cottage. The cottage itself was comfortable, with everything we needed. The directions provided were clear and we found the cottage without any issue. The large enclosed garden was amazing and we could have done a different walk every day, without having to get into the car. Definitely recommended and we plan to come back!
