Lovely cottage

Cottage was very well presented with everything you could possibly need for a week stay. A complementary bottle of wine awaited us on arrival along with treats for our dog which was a nice touch. Very peaceful location. Lovely hosts. Would definitely stay here again.

More than one night would have been wonderful

Such a delightful, thoughtfully furnished cottage and we were blessed with sunshine, so sat out on the veranda looking at the beautiful view. Very peaceful place with everything you need. We wished we could stay more than one night, but were on our way north with limited time. We loved the eggs that were left for us, as well as the hens scratching around over the fence.
