We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the cottage is kept to a very clean high standard and comes equipped with everything that you will need to enjoy your holiday. We loved the log burner with the logs and kindling that were provided. The towels are lovely and fluffy and the bedding so crisp and fresh. The private parking undercover was ideal. Thank you Elaine, we will be back!
