Quiet and Relaxing

We really enjoyed our two night stay here. The cottage is set in beautiful gardens which makes it pleasant and tranquil. It is well set up with plenty of outdoor chairs and space to make the most of the peace and quiet. Inside is well furnished and having two separate bathrooms is such a bonus. The cottage is a wonderful place for a break away and everything is at hand for a pleasant stay!
