Clean, lovely cottage. Comfy beds. Fire keeps it lovely and warm. Appreciated all of the fire wood. Easy to find. No wifi and only some free to air tv channels. However, lots of movies to choose from. Would’ve appreciated if the accommodation included a few more basic supplies including washing powder and a top up of the dishwashing liquid as it was quite low. Also couldn’t find a grater in the kitchen!
