The cottage although small is very well equipped. The shower room is small and could be a bit of a squeeze for a larger person. The garden is enclosed with a five bar gate. It was fine for my Golden Retriever but smaller dogs may need to be tethered to stop them getting out. The location is excellent for country walks and is also close to the coastRead moreal resorts. Theres a local pub which serves great food. Overall a great stay even though the weather was bad. Hide

The shower was very good, easy to work, tiny bathroom,toilet situated very close to a bi fold door, a large person would find it difficult to use. There was a good walk down the lane and along a disused railway line,plenty of wild life, deer, hares and lots of different birds. We didn't see the owners but the locals were all very friendly. The cRead moreottage was situation central to the coast and countryside,easy to drive to.Lots to see. The bed was very comfy Hide

This cottage was everything we needed, it was well equipped, clean and cozy and lovely location close to lots of places and the local walks perfect. We really enjoyed our much needed break and loved the unexpected bottle of wine waiting in the fridge for us and flowers a lovely touch. We will definitely be going back to this cute cottage
