Lovely cottage, my kids loved the hot tub, and the bug Parc around the corner. the little shop was great for any essentials you forgot and some nice little crafts for the kids. Lovely to be able to borrow books or games . We had a lovely time and have recommended it to some of our friends.

Overall, was a nice stay howver the actual cottage itself could use some work/maintenance as quite a few cosmetic issues and also some interior issues such as the blind in the bedrooms not closing properly which was a pain as let lots of light in to our babies room. Would have been nice to have the twinkle lights around the back garden working, both had no batteries, did try to contact the owner for some but still no response. Also, would have been helpful for basic equipment in the kitchen such as oil for cooking as there are not many local takeaways. The location is nice and quiet but quite remote so stock up on food if youre not planning on going out for dinner.Some channels mainly BBC didnt work which wasnt ideal for our little one wanting cbeebies on. We loved the hot tub and this worked well. Loved the decoration and felt homely just needs some tlc in parts!
