Lovely modern cottage in the middle of the village .Plenty of walks from the doorstep and a couple of decent pubs are within a short walk , so it’s very conveniently located.Lovely log burner and the most comfy beds with top quality bedding too.Only down size is the car park space is rather small and not so easy to navigate out of if all spaces are taken up from neighbouring cottages.Would definitely recommend this cottage and are likely to return.
