Lovely spacious cottage with excellent views. Our party consisted of 3 adults, 2 kids and 2 big dogs and didn't feel cramped. One of our group is a wheelchair user so entered using back door. Short drive to amenities like heated outdoor swimming pool and lovely park for kids and dogs.Cottage is not too far from main road but peaceful and we were lucky with the weather!I would say the only thing missing which we knew about before our visit was no washing machine. We enjoyed our stay and would return, thank you.
