Lovely cottage, very clean, comfy beds, great location, only complaint was the shower but didn’t impede on holiday
Confirmed Guest
The location was beautiful, but we don't feel it was suitable for dogs. There is no garden attached to let them out for a ***, Great difficulty parking the car as the free car park was always full and no spaces. No mop in the cupboard if there are any spills on the floor. There was much noise outside the pub next door in the Saturday daytime, the dog constantly barked at these people, so we cut the holiday short and went home a day early.
