We spent just Two night at this lovely cottage but we had a wonderful time. The landscape is beautiful and the bird’s chirping is a lovely way to wake up in the morning. Thank you to the owners for allowing us to use their place,

A beautiful part of the country and a very well equipped cottage.
A beautiful part of the country and a very well equipped cottage. The owner was very friendly and there on hand when we needed her but not intrusive. We would certainly return to this part of the country again and would definitely consider using the same accommodation. Plenty of room for a family of 5 with 3 strapping teenage boys.
