Very cosy cottage where nothing is missing. We had one sunny week, so that we were hiking every day and had only time for one DVD, which are also available in this cottage. Thank you very much for your welcome gifts, even for the dogs.

Lovely quirky cottage
We really enjoyed our short stay
The cottage was clean and tidy throughout, with a lovely log burner which soon warmed the room up after a day out walking.
It was an Ideal base to do some sightseeing, plus there is a lovely friendly pub down the road which served bar meals and real ales.
Look forward to returning again next year
