Another great stay in this gorgeous cottage. It is what is says, a cosy cottage for two. It had everything you need, thank you for the prosecco & chocolates, its a lovely touch. We love the location, some nice walks but close to drive to other areas. The pub in the hotel is fab, and is a stones throw away. Stayed here twice now & will definitely be back.
