Nice quiet area, good view from a very shady untidy garden. Walks from cottage door were excellent.Stairs in cottage a hazard, not for anyone with mobility problems, although it is mentioned in property information. Upstairs in bedrooms lack sockets, and no mirrors. Kitchen accessories minimal. Good pub very close, lovely food.
