Nash point cottage (Ariel)

Modern interior, well equipped and a superb location. Be aware that the third single bedroom is located away from the other bedrooms which may be unsuitable for younger children. Our four year old wasn't to keen on sleeping there. But she enjoy the rest of the building and surrounding area. We would come again.
