The parking was very good and the internet was also great. The location provides quiet while making the downtown very accessible. Overall, highly recommend the cottage.

Good location - everything we needed
the house was in a good location with easy parking. Clean and practical with an enclosed garden. Perfect for our two night stay but would have been caught out by the extra charge for the dog which we thought was high and at the time was not on the description.
