The location is idyllic, with views over peaceful countryside. The cottage is very well furnished (including excellent wi-fi and Netflix for evenings in!). The mattress was softer than we would have liked, but others may prefer it that way. All in all, a terrific cottage in an absolutely perfect countryside location.
