We had the most perfect weekend away. The cottage is super spacious, comfortable and clean. The heated floor and large kitchen and bathroom were both highlights, but we loved everything. The cottage has character and we really liked the different levels and setting overlooking the mill pond. It was also so quiet and dark at night, so we slept really well too. Definitely book this place, we really want to go back!
