It had a great shower and my husband loved having a coffee machine with and frothy maker also , This was an unexpected treat. We loved the peaceful setting and were both impressed with everything the cottage had to offer. Would love to return some time again,

We immediately poured a glass of vino and sat in the secluded garden listening to the birds. Unpacking was easy with plenty of storage, cooking facilities had everything we needed and the bed was comfy. Bathroom and shower brought no complaints from us and we would certainly recommend it.
