We stayed for a weekend in February , found the cottage to be a little way out of village centre up a somewhat steep but short hill. Would be a problem for the elderly or infirm. Otherwise the cottage is very good , well furnished, clean quiet .
Overall very good . For a walking or quiet break just perfect.
