The property was perfect for the two of us and the two dogs and it was in a great location for lots of walks.

Layout of exterior of property is a little deceptive as we thought the seating area was directly outside waterfall cottage . Was not aware owner had a dog that had free roam of grounds prior to booking . Water from taps is brown and offputting we purchased bottled water but even when boiling this in the kettle it went cloudy due to the tap water being boiled prior . Cottage was a lot smaller than appeared in the pictures and a little clostraphobic . Parking for 2 cars but unable to turn car around when both spaces occupied . Overall a beatiful location and host however we felt a little by the cottage and its layout for the price point
