Excellent cottage, clean and well equipped..however the constant humming at night was quite disturbing, not sure if it was a generator or other machinery!! Difficult to sleep due to the drone. TV reception was also poor with only few channels to view, not sure if this is a regular occurrence or not. [This has been addressed.]

Lovely cottage everything was provided , even had umbrellas to use ,everything looked brand new. Lovely and clean, nice and comfortable. Only thing they had a bath and I did not think water was hot enough, but shower was lovely, though it was over the bath so could be difficult for a lot of people. Other than that we enjoyed our stay Thank you
