Rose Cottage worked very well. The cottage is comfy and is directly by the village church, which is rarely used and beautiful.The cottage is well equipped with washing machine and dishwasher. The bedroom upstairs can get hot, but a handy fan is on hand. Overall the cottage is a tad tired and could probably do with a very deep clean, but it's fine and for the very good charge it worked well and is real value for money. I needed to book it from Sunday to Sunday and this is one of the only cottages who could accommodate us.
