It was really comfortable and the kitchen had every item you needed. Bed in main bedroom was very comfy and bedroom was large with lots of storage. Courtyard was an added bonus as our first week was hot and sunny and nice to sit outside after a day out. Location is good although I think mention should be made in the description of the property of the steep approach to the property as some elderly guests may struggle with this. Would definitely recommend this lovely cottage to friends/family

I have already sent a review. Also had numerous phone conversations with yourselves about the house but issue not resolved. Very disappointed. Iâm sure the owner of the property would be mortified by how unclean it was.
