    Cottage is still good, in a wonderful position, with walks from the front door and fabulous views. Unfortunately holiday was spoilt a bit by very wet weather and the 2 other couples due to join us were unable to do so.

    Listing did not give the impression that there were stairs. Certain things were missing e.g waste paper baskets in lounge and bedrooms. There was no trays for carrying drinks or food down to dining area. Non-slip mats in the upstairs bathrooms would be a good addition. Difficult single track road to and from the property.

    The property was a beautiful comfortable barn conversion carried out to a high degree. Rustic enough to be authentic, modern enough to offer a subtle luxury. The downstairs bedroom was a bonus for my partially disabled wife. The only observation I would have was the upstairs toilets don’t flush very well. The views were breathtaking, the walking was as good as advertised.
