Great wee cottage.
Great wee cottage.Great log burner and cosy couch. Lovely area great for dog walking and relaxing. Good small village close within walking distance for shops. Great dog friendly hotel at end of road for a few drinks. Only down side wall between river and seating area quite low our dog jumped it and got caught in the undergrowth trying to get back up. Scared all of us as it was thick jagged bushes and dark also.
