Much bigger than expected. Well equipped and warm. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay with our dog. Friendly pub within walking distance. Lovely part of the world to discover from a comfortable base.

The cottage is very comfortable, spacious and warm. The hot tub was such an added bonus - set in the secluded garden. Owners were helpful when needed but always respected our privacy.
