Linda
The cottage was cosy with a lovely hot tub and logs were provided for the fire which we enjoyed on a few chilly nights. There is a swimming pool at the owners house for a charge per person which was well worth it lovely and warm and private for your party. We didn't want to leave but hope to return again. Lovely meeting Muriel an amazing person who keeps the whole complex to a high standard and looks after her guests.
