This cottage is a wonderfully quiet and peaceful retreat, making it the perfect setting for our holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, which was made particularly memorable by spotting local wildlife, including White-tailed eagles and deer. We highly recommend this beautiful location and certainly plan to return again in the future.
