We had a very enjoyable and comfortable stay. The cottage is very well equipt and comfortable and is surrounded by countryside. There is lots of room inside and 2 seating areas outside. The owners live next door so any problems, not that we had any, can be quickly sorted. There is a single track road to the cottage but the the 3 times we met other Read morevehicles we managed to sort ourselves out very easily, mostly due to the owners knowing the best way to get past.
