Everything was excellent. Absolutely everything was provided. My only complaint would be the kitchen was too small for four people. Fortunately we were only two so it was ok.

In 30+ years of holidays this has to be one of the best cottages we've stayed in. Spotlessly clean. Warm and cosy. All the comforts of home. Great welcome pack and having a PDF sent prior helped as well. Great location for exploring the local area and walks from the front door. Very peaceful. Can recommend the local farm shop for fresh fruit etc.
