Lovely cottage with lots of thoughtful touches and most importantly the garden was safe for Rosie our small cavapoo. We stayed there while our new home was being renovated so unfortunately we didn't get to do any sightseeing. Bear in mind that being rural the internet could be a bit slow at times though it was not too much of a problem to us.
