Catherine
Much larger cottage than expected and well equipped. Fridge space a little small, and no ice tray in freezer compartment. No instructions for cooker or TV. Could do with a radio in the cottage. No recycling bins.

Has become a real home-from-home. A total break, much needed.

Everything inside was as though it was just bought. Everything worked and their were no issues. The owners were great to talk to and very welcoming and helpful. The wildlife and birds around the property was great and the property was peaceful and relaxing. The owners was also a land rover owners which was also a bonus. Really one of the best holidays we have had recently and just what we both needed.
