    “The cottage is finished to a very standard inside and out, and a lot of thought has been given to all we needed to make our stay a comfortable one.”

    The private courtyard with its colourful planting is a great place to relax in. The location is superb and ideal for reaching all the places on our wish list. (For Victoria only - only downside was the bathroom towel rail which has been disconnected. The towels never dried out properly despite using the airer.)
