Lovely wee cottage, cozy and in pretty surroundings. Central for exploring. Only criticism is that the appliances need an upgrade, the oven took forever to cook anything. Would definitely use again

Lovely little cottage for two people. Everything you need and a welcome pack to start you off. Friendly, helpful owners. Comfortable bed. Large garden for dogs and conservatory to sit in to watch the birds on the feeders. Quite remote amongst farmland, so you need to drive to buy supplies.
