Generally quiet and restful location, close to amenities. My second visit so canât be bad, but could do with a couple of items of repair.

The listing described secure bike storage which did not exist. We booked the cottage specifically for this as we travelled to the area for mountain biking. The property was also lacking adequate facilities for a family of 4 to eat. The breakfast bar had 4 chairs but inly space for 2, max 3 to sit at the abr comfortably with space for legs under it. We also disliked the caravan grave yard infront of the property.

Would definitely recommend staying there. Also a plus is being able to take my dog Hannah.
