Lovely cottage, very peaceful location with a gorgeous view. Well supplied with everything you could need and owners were lovely. One minor point was all the plates/cups seemed a bit dirty. Obviously probably from previous people staying but we did have to wash up everything we wanted to use thoroughly before using. Again only a minor point and would definitely not put us off staying again. Overall a really lovely weekend break with great local attractions and a quiet location. Just what we needed, thank you!
