A nice welcome pack of cake, biscuits and milk which we very much appreciated after our long journey. The cottage was stocked with everything we needed. We had a text message from Zoe, the owner, the day before we set off advising of where the key store was and confirmation of the code. She also texted us after we arrived to see if everything was okay and then again during our stay to check again. We would definitely love to stay again in warmer weather to make use of the courtyard too. Thank you Zoe for making our stay just perfect.
