The cottage had everything we needed and was a great base for exploring the area. It was clean and tidy and the owner had thought about everything needed for guests to have a comfortable stay.

The kitchen was well-equipped with everything that we needed. It was well set up for a toddler, with cot, highchair, travel cot (used as playpen), black-out blinds and a few additional toys and books. The views were lovely and the farm noise was very little (it was lovely to see the cows going out to the field in the morning!). We would definitely stay again.
