just gorgeous
After having stayed at the Cottage ourselves, purchased a visit for my daughter and son in law. Upon entering they were immediately mesmerised by the gorgeous, fun, and comfortable furnishings. The cottage was beautifully appointed, clean and welcoming with the heater on and a cosy couch waiting. Thank you for all that you did.

Quiet and homely
Clean and comfortable. Well stocked with everything we needed. Communication with Susan was great. Off street parking space more suited to a small car. With a big car it was difficult to get in and out of. Enjoyed our stay. Thank you
