    We had a great stay here, we found the cottage to be very spacious for a one bedroom cottage with all the amenities for a short or long stay. We loved that it was peaceful but also close to shops and restaurants just a short walk away. Our hosts were great but not intrusive. Great location and beautiful scenery, we definitely recommend to others.
