Good utility area at rear of property to clean dogs down prior to allowing them back in the house. We had a rather wet week!

Everything else was really good. So nice to be in a small hamlet and finding local walks. Everything that we needed was in this lovely cosy cottage.

Brilliant cottage but nothing near by had to travel half an hour by car for shop, no where to let dogs off leads and roads not a good place to walk them had to travel to find parks
