This is a lovely little cottage, clean and equipped with pretty much all you need. It has a small front garden consisting of decked area, small grass patch and gravel which is overlooked by other properties which can be either positive or negative depending on how social you are. I would consider this property dog tolerant rather than dog friendly. Down stairs is open plan, and dogs are not allowed on either sofa or upstairs ( although one of our jumped the baby gate on one occasion) so difficult to manage when you are upstairs asleep and dogs roaming downstairs. We always take our own throws just in case they sneak on sofa which were needed as only one small throw supplied. Had to travel some distance for dog walks. The road the property is off is national speed limit, quite narrow and winding in areas and no path/ grass verge to walk on so not really safe to walk along. I didn’t see any public footpaths in and around the immediate area ( right to roam) so I felt we spent a lot of time traveling in the car to different places to walk. I would say Lillys is ideal for a couple on their own just wanting to get away from it all.
