The standard of furnishings was high and dog friendly as well. Having an allocated parking space beside the cottage was hugely convenient. Impressed by the number of televisions and quality of Internet as well. It made for an enjoyable holiday experience.

Location is brilliant and with the convenience of 1 parking space. Cosy little cottage which has everything you need and is a great base for exploring surrounding area.
