Wonderful stay at Drewdrop Cottage
Drewdrop Cottage was the perfect location for our three- generation family holiday. Our three year old loved the “unicorn” - pony, the pool and the many toys. We all loved the peaceful view and the comfort and cleanliness at Drewdrop cottage, we would definitely recommend.
