Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found the property clean and comfortable, with only a few mentioning issues such as cobwebs and diluted handwashes. The positive remarks outweigh the negatives, indicating a generally high standard of cleanliness.
The location is consistently described as beautiful and peaceful, with lovely scenery and proximity to local attractions. The remote setting is appreciated for its tranquility, although the access track is noted to be bumpy.
The majority of guests found the cottage comfortable, with ample space for large groups and a warm atmosphere. Some concerns were raised about the size of the living rooms and the narrowness of the dining area, but overall, the comfort level is rated highly.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the well-stocked kitchens and the games room, despite some maintenance issues like a loose toilet seat and worn table tennis equipment. The presence of two kitchens and the games room are highlights, though some guests noted the need for better upkeep.
While guests have mentioned the owner's helpfulness and a warm welcome, there are no specific references to gifts or special thoughtful touches that could be expected by future guests. Therefore, a score cannot be provided for this category.

Perfect for a large group. Beautifully presented and it had everything we needed. The highlight was the games room which both the adults and kids enjoyed. We were also greeted with a lovely welcome hamper. We will definitely return.
