What a fantastic holiday let beautifully renovated and the location is to die for. If you want solitude and to be totally away from it all this is the place. Secure for your Dog and all the surrounding fields are there for you to run or walk your dog. The owner is very helpful and on hand if you need anything. The cottage itself is well equipped everything you need is there. The only note for me is the fact the stairs are very steep but apart from that Izzie and I would recommend it for a getaway from it all holiday.
