The property is comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. The beds and the sofa are both comfortable, the shower is a pleasure to use,as it is powerful and there's plenty of hot water. The garden is huge and would be great for eating outside during the summer. Our only reservation is the low bedroom ceiling which is only suitable for those below 5 foot 10 inches tall. I am 6 foot tall and couldn't stand up straight anywhere in the bedroom ,so I slept in the single bed downstairs. I also bashed my head when forgetting to duck when going from the kitchen into the living room.

We had a lovely stay in this cosy cottage. There was a lovely welcome gift and the owner was great. We loved the big garden for our 8 year old to let off steam. It was very hot and we had 2 very good fans supplied which were a godsend.
