The bedrooms and shower were fantastic. Big sociable kitchen was great too, with everything you could think of. Sitting room was "cosy" but we didn't really use it as it was summer. The tiny garden around the cottage is really beautiful and the location suited our needs well. The only comment I would make is that the access was not very easy for one of our party with some mobility problems and I don't think this was very clear from the description. The owners were on hand if needed, and friendly and helpful.
