Fantastic location! Nice cottage, well equipped kitchen and comfy beds. Maybe a little tired , but good value for money. Would benefit from brighter light bulbs, a bit on the gloomy side.

Lovely cottage overlooking the river- very warm and comfortable- we arrived the day a storm had knocked out power and water- the owner called early to check we were happy to continue- left extra supplies to cope- great scenery- pub and Greek restaurant nearby- all in all we had a great stay and would return gladly
