wonderful place and wonderful hosts

we had a great stay in Mel's cottage. She and her family looked after us so well. The cottage is lovely as is garden and pool. We loved the 3 dogs who were waiting outside the door to greet us every morning. We will definitely stay again - in fact we have already booked!
