A great cottage, in a great location, much bigger than it's name implies, however, it was disappointing not to have had a welcome pack upon arrival, particularly after an almost 9 hour drive.

Mr Wood
A very comfortable, pratical and atractive house. In a central but quiet position with parking for one car. The living area and well equiped kitchen on the second floor works very well.
