Reviews
My family and I stayed here August 11th - 13th for a short break and found this to be a perfect little retreat! It is centrally located for accessing the local mountains and numerous walks in the area as well as being handy for getting to the nearby coast. We were really pleasantly suprised to find that the cottage is exactly as described and that the other positive reviews are truly justified! The owners have thought of pretty much everything that you will need for a comfortable hassle free stay and we were very impressed with the attention to detail and with how extremely clean the cottage was, despite allowing pets! Having being without a dog for a while we now have a new pup and we are really looking forward to staying again and taking her on some of the fantastic local walks when she's a bit more mature! Thanks to Susie and her partner for a really lovely relaxing short break, see you again soon!
