Very clean and tidy. Appreciated the welcome card, crisps and biscuits. Home from home feel although a bit dated back into the 1970’s!! Very heavy douvet on double bed. Central heating kept us well cosy / almost too cosy!Every thing we needed was available. Good shower. Views and location exceptional David

Lovely cottage, great views and wild life. Needs slightly modernising but there is nothing wrong with it, all clean and tidy. The only thing I would say if you have young children be aware there is no gate at the front and some of the traffic do not stick to the speed limit, but that is not the owners fault. Again we enjoyed our stay here.
