Comfy and cosy
A charming old cottage, basic but very clean and comfortable. Lovely soft beds, well appointed kitchen and a lovely warm hot tub. Welcome pack of tea,coffee, milk and wine, plus kitchen and toilet rolls on arrival.
Just one thing ladies, take your jewellery off before going in the tub. The chemicals used to keep it safe and hygienic will tarnish it, particularly silver.
Overall excellent value in a secluded and private location. Would certainly go again
