Would rate higher if I could!! The cottage is amazing, beautifully finished and spotless. It was so peaceful and quiet. Trudie was so helpful via text with arrival information and offering assistance if needed. There was a welcome gift and little extras if needed, which is so thoughtful. It’s a great spot for exploring the area. We had such an amazing weekend and cannot wait to book again!

A superb accommodation, clean , comfortable and peaceful. Outside space and surroundings were stunning.Very well equipped and thought out,great host contact throughout if required.The ridiculous heat slightly affected comfort both inside and out,but if course that's no reflection on accommodation.Local amenities were sparse,but that wasn't a problem although I imagine it may be for some .Didn't touch TV which always indicates an enjoyable stay.Only minor thing was perhaps a three seater sofa instead of the two,we found it slightly too snug,but again that's personal taste.Would strongly recommend for a complete rest,relax and chill.
