Really comfortable little cottage in a wonderful location, surrounded by countryside with walks in every direction from the door. The kitchen is well stocked for anything you need and the bedroom is very comfortable, even if the stairs are quite on the steep side. The living room area is really comfortable and it makes for a lovely, relaxing base for one or two people.
