A lovely cosy cottage in a very pleasant village. There was a comprehensive folder giving information about the various utilities and suggestions for walks and visits. The furniture was comfortable and the beds were amazing. Some great walks for the dogs and lots to do in the beautiful surrounding countryside. We would happily book again.
