The cottage is frequently described as cosy and warm, with comfortable beds and a living room that guests find very relaxing. The large garden adds to the comfort by providing space for pets and outdoor activities.
Facilities are generally good, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable furnishings. However, some guests noted the kitchen and bathroom could use updating, and there were minor issues with figuring out the lighting and heating up the shower.
