Just enjoyed a great week in Angel Cottage. Spotlessly clean and so well equipped. Nice little touch of a bottle of red wine and some shortcake biscuits to welcome us. Great to have hand soap, rubber gloves for washing up, washing up liquid, dishcloths and toilet rolls. These are often not provided in some cottages. They were very much appreciated. We had a log fire which kept us nice and cosy. We see from the visitors book that people have stayed more than once. We would definitely stay again. Great to have one level living for people with disabilities who can’t manage the stairs. A shower stool was provided which was a great help. The beds were very comfortable. Two very happy guests thank you.
