The best equipped, cleanest and comfortable cottage I have ever stayed at.
The best equipped, cleanest and comfortable cottage I have ever stayed at. They have thought of everything you would need, everything you might need.......and everything you forgot!!!Every room, cupboard, drawer shines out at you. All the tiles, cutlery, crockery is gleaming. Perfect. Other cottage owners need to be aware of the difference between high and low standards. I cannot fault them.
