This a a fabulous cottage with everything you need for a comfortable relaxed break away from it all.
This a a fabulous cottage with everything you need for a comfortable relaxed break away from it all. The cottage is spotlessly clean, and the owners have taken the time to leave incredibly detailed information about all the walks/things to do in the area, which is really helpful. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to cook a meal, and the real fire is perfect for relaxing after a long day out walking. There is a pretty garden, and although small, it's enough for the furry members of the family! We stayed in autumn and would love to revisit again in the spring.
