We have stayed here a few times and it is a lovely cottage and great location. Unfortunately, when we arrived, there was dog poo on the path to our cottage, it was disappointing that the owner of the dog did not pick up and it was not noticed when the cottage was cleaned at the change over, as when we arrived the gate was closed. There was also a strong smell of bleach in cottage and we had to open the windows . Apart from this, we would recommend a stay at this cottage .

This is the second time we have stayed in this comfortable clean cottage which is in an excellent location. A wonderful welcome pack was provided which was very much appreciated thank you. We are already considering our next visit.
