The location is frequently described as stunning, peaceful, and ideal for a countryside escape. Guests enjoy the views and privacy, though it is noted to be remote and not within walking distance of pubs or shops.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, warm, and cosy, with spacious living areas. Some mention a less comfortable sofabed and a soft sofa, but these are minor compared to the overall comfort.
The hot tub, enclosed decking, and well-equipped kitchen are highly appreciated. The main drawback is the lack of WiFi, and a suggestion for exterior maintenance. Facilities are otherwise well received.
