Comfy cosy cottage
Comfortable, spacious cottage. Excellent dining room facilities and a cosy lounge. Fantastic hot tub for 4 (not 8 as listed) and a huge bonus that it is covered, allowing you to sill use it in the rain. A less than 5 minute walk to the pub, however it is along a very busy main road without a path and only safe in daylight.
With a more comfortable mattress in the main bedroom and either a hot tub top up visit (or access to a hose to do it yourself) this would have earned a 5 star review from us.
