Great rural location to get away from the hustle and bustle. Great walks and trails from the cottage. And lots of helpful local amenities. Great retreat for a couple or small family, stairs were steep but in keeping with the character of the property. Lovely setting and we felt incredibly relaxed and well looked after by Julie Thank you!
