There were 9 of us staying plus 2 kids and it was perfect. The open space was great for everyone and kitchen island was such a perfect touch for the social aspect of the stay. The kitchen was the most stocked kitchen weâd stayed in, it had everything you needed. The beds were all really comfy and the pillows were nice and big too. The only problem we had was that the WiFi wasnât working. We did try and get in contact with the owners to get it sorted but we had no reply. It didnât ruin the stay but it would have been handy to have it.
Jackie
Would definitely recommend this property to anyone.

The cottage was well equipped and had plenty of space for our family group of 8. Lovely garden to enjoy on a summer evening. The only thing that I would recommend is that they invest in some curtains for the bedrooms. We were all away very early due to the sunshine through the thin blinds.
