Great location for the Mach Loop. Discription is spot on. We stopped on the way to get supplies as the local shop/cafe is limited, but great for bits and bobs. l 100% encourage you to have a breakfast at the cafe....and buy a cake on the way out! The red velvet cupcakes were great. Parking discription is accurate, very limited, however we had no issues. We got parked outside the property or on the main road. If we had to we could have used the pub as we went for a few drinks and they were very a compdating. The parking situation wouldn't pit us off going back. The cottage itself was clean, modern and fully stocked in regards to kitchenware. We had a lovely wander down the path to the river at the back of the cottage, saw all the sheep! We 100% will be back to this idyllic village and cottage.
