Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
A cottage well off the beaten track. No TV and wifi for 2 nights. Then it rained and the cloud was low so sightseeing was out of the question. Spent the day blobbing out reading and DVD watching. Best possible place to spend a day doing this.

If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, this is the place for you!! Very secluded and very quiet, I didn't realise how quiet it could be. It is a lovely little cottage with all the comforts of home except television reception so bring a good book. There are no shops near by so remember to bring everything you need including milk etc.
