Attention to detail was the key here, Everything else fell into place after that. Coffee tea sugar and milk for arrival and a treat of a huge cut loaf with jam and butter. But the property was amazing. Spacious, and bright and comfortable with views to die for whatever time of year you visit I suspect. We have rebooked for next year - this says it all!!

Very comfortable and warm with more than enough space for the two of us and 2 dogs. The welcome pack with freshly baked bread was delicious. Magnificent views and lots of walks from the door.

The bathroom with its large bath an walk in shower was a delight although the shower could do with a non slip mat. The rear garden was dog proof as our 2 escape artists proved, by not being able to disappear. We had a relaxing week here and just chilled out by the log burner. Thank you to the owners for the starter pack of milk bread butter etc, and not forgetting the dog treats. I would highly recommend the cottage for a quiet getaway. Thank you.
