Quirky old cottage that could do with a few small additions to make it more user friendly. Good modern oven, could do with a larger fridge for full occupancy and some extra coat /clothes hangers. Otherwise perfectly usable in good location and friendly host.

A comfortable cottage to stay for a few days. Welcome gifts including milk in the fridge, biscuits, tea & coffee bags were appreciated. Also the flowers on the table. Wi-fi worked well. Outside seating was a treat in the hot weather. Very close to bus stops with buses every hour.
