It was beautiful and extremely comfortable. Wonderful location and easy access to all the local attractions. Great bus service too. The neighbours were lovely and welcoming too. Facilities in the cottage were welcomed especially the lovely biscuits which was a nice touch. The Bronte pub next door served amazing quality food and at a reasonable price. The only thing I couldn't find was the hoover as I wanted to clean the carpets before we left, not that we left it dirty or anything, it's just how I like to leave things as clean as when we arrived. Would definitely recommend and will be booking to come back again very soon.
