Lovely cottage! We stayed for a week over Christmas and had a lovely time.Chris welcomed us when we arrived, he was very helpful, and was happy to answer any questions we had. Good luck to you and your family in your new venture! :)The kitchen was fully equipped to cook our Christmas dinner. The cottage was lovely and warm too!The hot tub was maintained daily and was a brilliant touch to our stay. The cottage is within walking distance to the village, where there is a co-op for any bits of shopping, there is also a Chinese takeaway and a kebab shop too if needed.
