    The cottage is also well equipped and maintained and the two bedrooms with on-suite are extremely comfortable. Only minor item for us as elderly people are the benches and seats, it is not easy to sit in a upright position. Regarding the EV charge, which was easy and according normal charge, it is to be preferred to put the kw-price on the web to avoid surpices.

  • Michael

    And in a beautiful part of the country. Thank you, David and Lynne, so much for everything.

  • David

    The property is exceptionally comfortable. The location is close to Sustrans Route 3 so cyclists can explore the local area, including the historic aspects of the Great Western Canal system leading to Bridgewater or Tiverton. Walkers will enjoy good rambling in the fields and river banks accessible straight from the front door. Shops and interesting pubs are in easy reach. For those interested in trombones the nearby John Packer superstore is an Aladdin's Cave of delights.
