We have been coming here since 1972 and it simply doesn't change! We had some wonderful weather and never tire of the amazing scenery.The cottage is well equipped and comfortable. We love it.

Wish I could keep it a secret.

Couple of points; as mentioned in a previous review not being able to control heating was a bit of an issue. Having to open the windows because itâs so hot inside, when 1 degrees outside isnât great, would recommend giving guest access to the thermostat. Also the welcome book is a lists of donât doâsâ¦fully appreciate the cottage is someoneâs property, but we stay at a lot of cottages @ AirBnBâs and the welcome book comes across as unfriendly (e.g welcome dogs but the ask is to keep them in the kitchen and remove every single dog hair...). Overall it was a great week, and the property is in an amazing location so we had lots of fun.
