Only small niggle was that it got cold at night, our stay was in December, and additional bedding in very short supply. We would recommend additional blankets. Be aware the owner can control central heating remotely.

It was very comfortable and cozy. The decor was very tasteful and the online pictures really donât do it justice. Everything worked as it should and we had plenty of hot water for showers and baths. The heating was so easy to control and was very effective. The owners were very easy to communicate with and were helpful with suggestions of where to eat and the route required to get to the property. The best bit was that we had a choice of two pubs literally within 5 minutes walk of the cottage. The surrounding area is beautiful and easily accessible for walks.
