Gorgeous cottage,fab quite location, didn't hear any cars. well equipt kitchen. Did miss a icebox in the fridge. The bed was really comfortable and the sofa was really comfy after a day's walking (could have used a couple of cushions ). Their are excellent footpaths straight out the back gate or at the bottom of the drive,Odin had the best time.and ended up a tired pup. Julie is lovely and very welcoming. Wish we'd have stayed longer.

We had a lovely relaxing stay with our dog Buster, he loved the fully enclosed safe garden.We didn't need to take anything as the house was fully equipped, from the kitchen to the bathroom.Julie was a great host and the little finishing touches left around for us was great ( coffee, butter, jam, cereal and milk also toiletries in the bathroom) Lovely cottage in a lovely quiet secluded area.
Lovely cozy room to relax in!
