Cozy wee cottage is a perfect description- except there are little hideaways and even spending a rainy day with two kids here was great. Host was very easy to communicate with and was super kind when I made a mistake with our booking. Will definitely stay here again!

Great little place

This is the second time we have stayed here all was great.. except the cleanliness on arrival, was obviously not checked after last guests. I had to vacuum as it was pretty bad, and found dirty shorts just under( very visible) the queen bed. Otherwise our stay was good.
