Supposed to be dog friendly but the front patio is open so you could not have the patio doors open as there was a fairly busy road right behind the property, an accident waiting to happen. Apart from a few coat hangers there was nowhere to put clothes and no room for luggage. No washing machine which I would expect for a luxury cottage. Ok fora weekend getaway but difficult for a week with a dog.
