Open plan living and sleeping with separate bathroom. Good design. Lovely outside living. Very private (apart from occasional car down next door driveway and some lovely doggy visitors). Well equipped. Idyllic location. Helpful owners. Well stocked and with breakfast provisions which was a nice extra touch. Very enjoyable stay.
