Beautiful Property, beautiful location
High quality accommodation, beautiful bedding, lovely fittings, comfortable bedrooms and lounge, very well equipped kitchen. Might benefit from a sink draining rack. Shower in upstairs bathroom. Bed in upstairs double uncomfortable (really bad backache, but obviously this is personal). Directions could be a little clearer, plus good to mention unadapted (rough) road to reach the property. Loved the garden flowers placed all round the cottage, and lovely Egyptian cotton bedding. Lovely welcome from owners, great to be able to leave baggage before check in time, explained facilities in property, left us to it. Just fab!
