The cottage is in an ideal place to explore the hidden treasures around the area. The cottage is fully equipped with everything you need. The garage SPAR shop a few yards down the road is a great as it has everything you may have forgotten.Cottage has ample parking in the courtyard shared with two other cottages. We took our two dogs as it had a secure garden but found that the wall which is facing the main road was not quite high enough to allow our dogs to roam the garden freely for us to feel safe leaving them outside. Only needs something two feet high attached to the top of the wall just to keep your mind at rest so the dogs being allowed to roam freely. Underfloor heating is a great addition in the winter along with the log fire inglenook. Garden needs a little tidy up and the settee is worn and seems to be showing its age. No sun umbrella for patio furnitureOverall a great place ideally situated to relax and explore the area.

Lovely cottage everything was good apart from the settee which was worn out, very uncomfortable and the dining table round in a square hole was not good.The exterior was tatty, no comfortable seats and the patio area needed weeding and cleaning.
