The cottage was comfortable, with everything we needed (especially great wifi). Being in the south, it required a bit of driving if we wanted to visit most of the key tourist spots, but we knew that booking it and the location was great for daily walks and stargazing. Overall, ideal for a mixture of activities!Communication was also very good.Thanks to our hosts for the stay!
