The cottage was fabulous, very clean and facilities were great. There is a large separate drinks fridge which was a huge hit and a great idea. The hot tub was a great addition and used by most of our party from young to old. The scenery is gorgeous and it is so peaceful. We loved it and would highly recommend staying here.

Lovely cottage. Love the fact that every room has the option to be a double bed with en-suite, I've found this to be rare in larger properties. Great to have a large drinks fridge separate to the main fridge. Beautiful views from all the windows and the hot tub.
