The area is lovely and the house is spacious but it is being let down by ageing fittings and its position makes it quite noisy especially in the morning as the road is very close at the front. The kitchen cooker is not working properly and the hot tub is a bit dated and in need of repair. Also the bath and shower in the main bathroom both leak.

The cottage was clean and comfortable. Although a phone call the night before our stay suggested a cottage "nuance" of not all the cooker hobs working, we struggled to get one hob working on the first night, which meant we ate very late that night. The suggestion by the owner of going to the closed chip shop instead was not particularly helpful. HoRead morepefully they have got the cooker working for future guests now. Hide
