Everything you could ask for a quiet getaway. Location was good and shops were close by. Good walks. Entry to the courtyard for parking is a tight turn but plenty of parking once you navigate this

The cottage was clean and comfortable. The bathroom and shower room are relatively new and in excellent working order. The lounge is comfortably furnished and spacious with a large coffee table. The Internet provision is via BT and there was no issues with connectivity. Very fast broadband. The kitchen was nicely laid out with all the essential appliances - hob, oven, fridge/freezer, microwave and hot water boiler (domestic and central heating). Washing Machine, Crockery and Cutlery provision is modern and up to date. The TV in the lounge is functional and I would recommend it needs to be updated to Smart TV to enable the use of Apps such as BBC iPlayer, ITV X and having the ability to access other apps that we would have access to. TV programmes were limited to the main channels via a Sky Box.Bedding and Towels are provided in abundance.The owner is cooperative, friendly and helpful and was on hand to address any minor issues, not that we encountered any during our stay.A very small note, outside of the control of the owner, is that the access road is uneven in places. Parking space is excellent.
