Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviewers unanimously mention the exceptional cleanliness of the cottage, describing it as 'spotlessly clean' and 'extremely comfortable,' indicating top marks for cleanliness.

The location is highly praised for its peace, amazing views, and proximity to nature and walks, suggesting an excellent rating for the location.

Comfort is highlighted with guests finding the cottage 'extremely comfortable' and 'cosy,' which warrants a perfect score for comfort.

Facilities are well-regarded with mentions of a fully equipped kitchen and maintenance. One minor note was the absence of a place to rinse dogs, slightly impacting the otherwise excellent facilities score.

Thoughtfulness is evident through mentions of a welcome pack and personal touches. While gifts are warmly received, it is important to note that such gestures, though delightful, are not guaranteed.
