Beautiful, spotless and well equipped cottage in a fabulous location.Our only criticism would be that the beds and lounge furniture weren't very comfortable. We also ran out of hot water a couple of times and there didn't seem any way we could boost the system to reheat it. Not great when all 5 of us came back from a long snowy walk and needed hot showers!
