The location is ideal for touring, and some interesting walks nearby, with a small but secure garden for any 4 legged friends that accompany you. The decor is fabulous, and the fittings are functional and although I love coffee I chose not to use the coffee machine in the kitchen, it was just too high up for me (if you go there you will see what I mean). We absolutely loved the cottage, and because it all looked so fresh you feel compelled to keep it clean - which is as it should be. If we are in the vicinity again we will definitely look at booking this again.
