Cottage is well positioned with amazing views and is in a very quiet area. The games room ,whilst cold, was a huge benefit.

We loved the house and the location, the games room was really fun and the local pub was very nice. The hot tub was really good and worked well. The outside could of have maybe done with some lights and maybe some better darts or pool cues. However these are minor recommendations as the house was excellent.

An enjoyable stay for a birthday celebration. Comfortable rooms and well laid out. Great views across the hills if it isn't raining!
