Very warm, cosy and comfortable. Great position with the town, very central. Needed to contact the owner because I locked myself out

GroÃer, gemütlicher Wohn-Ess-Bereich, Küche angrenzend. Küche ist ausreichend ausgestattet, obwohl wir ein Schneidbrett und einen groÃen Topf vermisst haben. Die beiden Schlafzimmer verfügen über gute Betten und zweckmäÃige Wandschränke. Das Bad ist ein bisschen spartanisch, ohne eine Steckdose, Licht am Spiegel und Handtuchhalter, aber man kommt klar. Sehr angenehm der Kontakt zu den Eigentümern, als wir eine Einweisung für die Bedienung der Heizung benötigten. Im Gegensatz dazu die Agentur Sykes Holiday Cottages: Mehrfache Anfragen aufgrund einer notwendigen Ãnderung unserer Buchungen blieben unbeantwortet - komplett ohne Reaktion!

The garden is as described and separate from the house but you definitely needed a torch for last dog trips before bed. We had to buy one as the one provided didn't work. Apart from that we had a good stay.
