It was very cosy, warm and we felt "at home" there. the owners were very helpful and made sure we were comfy. We will certainly look to go back there again. We feel this was the best "Sykes" cottage we have been in so far. Thank you Sylvia and Frank.

With comfortable beds and lounge area and a well equipped kitchen it's ideal to come back and relax after exploring the area. The outside deck is a sun trap perfect for watching the birds and squirrels in the garden. Excellent communication with Sylvia. Thank you.
