Great place to stay with everything you would need. Lovely cottage, warm and so clean and the secure garden is a bonus. Lots of places to go walking and just a gorgeous place to relax in the evening.

A lovely super clean cottage with everything needed for a relaxing stay. The bed was extremely comfortable, with good quality bedding. The enclosed garden area was ideal for allowing our spaniel to free run during the day. The owners were most helpful when needed but not intrusive
