We have just returned from a week at this lovely cottage. The Hosts Dawn & Peter were so welcoming and friendly. The little touch of tea, coffee,milk and a cake was so thoughtful and a lovely gesture. You could ask for nothing more, everything you could think of was there including a hairdryer. The cottage was very comfortable especially the bed. We would recommend this cottage as a lovely get away. X
