The cottage was well appointed and well maintained. It had everything we needed. We were able to buy provisions in the local shops (the nearby and the spar). And there was a choice of takeout very close to the cottage. Weâre missing the lovely view. The only thing I missed was board games or playing cards. We flew over and luggage was limited, if weâd have driven then weâd have packed a couple of games. It was a lovely stay and Iâd stay again.
