Wouldn’t recommend for 4 adults. We enjoyed our stay on NC500 route. Wonderful view from property but lots of traffic passes by.

Very pleasant cottage. and well supplied.We did have a problem with water not going down shower plug hole. Did leave a message on table re this (I cleared the top part of the trap but water was still nearly overflowing shower tray, so think needs attention )but think this could be dealt with. Plumbing a wee bit odd.....the hot tap in shower room and the kitchen tap sprang a leak as parts needed tightening up (fortunately I was there to stop it running everywhere).Otherwise a really good place.

Location was good, cottage is as described. Lots of instruction given before arrival , but question was not answered. Otherwise everything went well.
