    Plenty of crockery provided but other items missing in order to cook ( could not afford to eat out every day!) A measuring jug would have been useful as would a tin opener that worked! Otherwise a lovely cottage in gorgeous surroundings.

    Very nice cottage. With an authentic look. Fully equipped. Very nice owner.

    We were greeted by the owner Anna, who was very helpful and welcoming. There was a lovely cake waiting for us and the dinner table had been laid which was so thoughtful, the log fire had also been lit in the lounge room. This cottage is by far the best place we have ever stayed in, it has been superbly furnished in keeping with the period of the cottage. Nothing looked out of place and we loved the extensive selection of books in various rooms. If you are looking for peace and tranquility you will find it here, we will definitely be returning.Nikki & Martin
