The Cottage had everything you need to make your stay perfect. A lot of care had been taken to make it so. The best way for me to say how happy I was is that I am looking to go back which has not happened before.

The most wonderful cottage stay we have had. Everything you could possibly need was provided at a high quality. We had rain every day but it did not spoil our stay, in fact evenings by the logburner were sooo cosy it added to it.Only problem we had was finding it. We arrived in the dark. Arriving in daylight would be fine but following the instructions, which again in daylight would be fine, the 4th cottage on the left? You cannot see all the other 3 in the dark. We were looking for a road sign to see the cottage opposite but missed the sign for the farm we should of seen as we were trying to count cottages, our fault but never mind, it did not spoil our stay.Would recommend this for anyone who needs to recharge and distress. It did the job for us.
