Great little cottage with everything you could need. Was lovely and warm all the time as well (and was very cold outside). Kitchen was very well stocked with cooking equipment, and I cant fault the cottage. The only frustrating thing was the postcode takes you to slightly the wrong spot (so was difficult to locate in the dark) and it seemed like it was a bot answering my questions on the chat as they werent actually answering the full question, so it was difficult to communicate with the host. But overall, a great stay and would recommend!
