Plover cottage is a beautiful home from home holiday location. We had a wonderful time staying here, our second year in a row. The hosts Lilian and Colin are wonderful. They are friendly, helpful, and kind, everything you need from dedicated hosts for holiday cottages such as these. The location is beautiful with lots of activities to do and places to visit, historically, culturally, and socially. A great location, great hosts, and a great holiday awaits you.
