Cottage was clean and comfortable with everything you could need. Enclosed rear garden was a hit with my dog. Parking was never an issue. Owner was very friendly and accommodating. Only slight negative was the walls were a bit thin so you could hear the neighbours but this wouldn't stop me from returning.
