It was beautifully clean, very well equipped, warm and welcoming. It's a great location, perfect for coastal and countryside walks. There's a dog friendly pub serving good value for money meals in the village and a proper little fish and chip shop but they're not open every day. We didn't want to leave. We will be back sometime for sure!

It was warm, comfortable, practical, homely and was kitted out with just about every thing that you're ever likely to need. We enjoyed the stunning rural views gazing out across the farm and sprawling lands - ideal too for walking our two borders. And Debra the owner was friendly, helpful, chatty and very approachable. All in all probably the best-value cottage we've ever stayed at - and we've stayed at well over a dozen from Cornwall to Inverness!
