The cottage is full of character, well maintained and decorated. The owners have thought out well the use of space and have added many extras to make it welcoming. The bathroom in particular has the WOW factor!.

LESLIE

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Very shabby inside, dirty furniture,unhygienic kitchen and no hot water in shower or bath.The shower also leaked from the wall fitting and gushed down the tiles.The carpets were dirty giving accomodation unpleasant smell. We decided to leave early but hosts didn't bother to ask if everything was ok. Would definitely not return!!!!
