Great location and a great host. The cottage has just about all you'll need and is very comfortable, quiet and relaxing. The access road is interesting (when you drive an older Land Rover) with the hairpin bend near the top and turning / parking at the cottage is quite restrictive, but all in all it's a really great find !

Comfy cottage in an excellent location. Didnt use the car all week as many walks from the house plus train station five mins walk away.
