Exceeded our expectations a comfortable well equipped cottage. The cottage had the luxury of 2 en-suites and had lovely views from the sitting room over the fields. Added bonus of two fields in which the dog could run free. Could not fault the cottage, location or the welcome from the owners Mary and Graham. Perfect week.
