Lovely & Homely
We all enjoyed our 2 day stay.
It felt like a lovely holiday house, every mod con, but without the sharp glitz of some resorts.
Aircon in the bedrooms would be a great addition.

Curlew cottage
The property is good for its age and has been done up well to suit short stay renters.
Cindy came quickly to fix an outside light that wasn't working so that was a wonderful help and allowed us to better use the deck.
The only thing that was a problem for me was that the ceiling fan in the bedroom with the double bed would only work on settings 2 and 3, not on setting one, which made it noisy and blowy when trying to sleep.
Overall a good, quiet place with very friendly wildlife
