Fantastic little cottage in a beautiful rural setting. Cozy and everything you need.Stayed with my family for the weekend, lovely country walks close by and not to far out of the way for trips out.

After a long journey from Scotland it was sheer bliss to walk into this welcoming and comfortable cottage. The location is so quiet and peaceful you cannot fail to relax and enjoy the view and surroundings. The owners Phil and Susan were most kind and helpful. We enjoyed our time so much we have booked to return next year.
