who showed us around. I am always optimistic when it comes to staying in someone else is property but, this was indeed a well laid out comfortable holiday home. Plenty of room in the living/ dining area, spacious main bedroom with a firm but comfortable bed. other two bedrooms slightly smaller but. your only sleeping in them. Nice size bathroom with a cubicle shower, plenty of room. Being upstairs , you get a lovely view out with the front door open of the countryside. There is a gravel drive from the main road to the property which is approx 1/2 mile long .

One of the best cottages we have stayed at over the years. Owner was very warm and welcoming. Beds were very comfortable and we all slept well. Cottage had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again.
