Little crown is great, as are the hosts Matthew and Brian, the property is quirky, with low beams, steep staircases and wonky floors but it's comfortable, quiet and beautifully equipped.

We had a wonderful time at the cottage. It is very well equipped and has a home from home feeling about it. It was a comfortable fit for myself and my two children.
