    Das Cottage ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Hervorzuheben wäre die sehr gute Lage für Ausflüge in alle Richtungen. Und nicht zu vergessen der sehr empfehlenswerte Pub genau gegenüber. Wir hatten unsere eigenen Räder dabei, die wir sehr viel benutzt haben. Aufgrund der Topographie sind E-Bikes von Vorteil.

    But if that's the biggest quibble then I think its safe to say we had a great time! Lovely area, house is great and beautifully decorated.

  • Naveed

    It was very clean and comfortable with great amenities. Super views across the village and nearby fields, and the location is handy to lots of amazing coastline and towns. Thanks for a great stay!
