    Highly recommend!

    The cottage was comfortable and cosy. The furnishings were in line with the age of the property. The log burner was efficient and we were provided with plenty of logs for our use. The kitchen was by and large well equipped but required a few additions such as teaspoons, potato peeler and food preparation knives. The dishwasher was not big enough for the 6 occupant house and was faulty (not completing a wash cycle. ) we had to force draining each time we used it. This was reported to the owners who said they would get it sorted. The utility needs a proper individual washing machine and tumble dryer. The hot tub was a wonderful addition despite the rain and time of year. All in all a lovely stay.
