Very well equipped. And the home made cake on arrival was a real treat. Location to the town was ideal for a stroll out to the local restaurants in the evenings. Our dogs didnât mind the extra walk to do their âbusinessâ either.

We found the bed to be extremely comfy, the kitchen set up was great, and having the drying area in the cellar would have been handy if it had been wet.
