Glacour Studio Cottage was perfect for us. My only suggestions to improve things slightly would be a small outside table to go with the existing chairs and a small side table beside the armchair.

Everything was good, unfortunately we had a bit of a nightmare and wouldn't want anyone else to go through what we did.I would ask the owner/visitors to remove all dog treats left by the last people to use the studio, because unfortunately our little Pomeranian 'Bingo' choked and died on a treat that was left by a previous visitor, no one's fault but hopefully this may avoid someone else going through what we have. **
