All the little extra luxuries you have at home making our stay so comfy. The log burner was amazing in the evening and the local walks were glorious. We ran out of fire wood mid week so popped to the local nursery a short walk away and they gave us more for free as they also own the cottage. So many sweet little towns not too far. The coffee shop in Berkeley was splendid, my teen recommends the milkshake! All in all a wonderful week away!
