What a fantastic short stay in the cosy cottage. It has everything you need, the under floor heating was a treat, as was the hot tub and being able to take our furry friend with us was a bonus. It is beautifully presented throughout and well looked after by the owners and in a very peaceful area. Louise was very helpful and welcoming.
