A lovely cottage which was very well equipped with everything that was needed. The kitchen equipment was spot on and everything worked. The bathroom and walk in shower was very modern and easy to use. Location excellent and helpful notes in the cottage very useful. If there is one criticism it is that a new settee would be more comfortable than the one the one the one there.
