This was a delightful cottage! We had such a relaxing week away from 'real life'. There are walks leading from the cottage, some up high and others which were flatter.

Our accomodation was spot on, so cosy and comfortable - the welcome pack was much appreciated thankyou. Catherine was very welcoming and helpful. We've been coming up to Glen Doll for many years and introduced two friends to our most favourite place. Staying on the doorstep was a treat.
