What a beautiful cottage set in a fantastic location, alongside a river, within walking distance to waterfalls. No shop in the village but it was fine for us as we went out exploring all the lakes in the district so got what we needed when we were out.Spent the week here with my husband and our 3 daughters. Cottage was spotless and spacious with everything that we needed.A very king gesture of a welcome basket was left for us on our arrival milk, eggs, butter, jam, bread, biscuits, tea and coffee, just what we needed after a long journey.Added bonus for me a washing machine and a tumble dryer if needed, but we used the washing line outside when it was sunny.Garage was a great plus too, that we used to dry out our paddle board and wetsuits over the numerous lines in the garage.The girls loved the soft throws on top of all the beds and in the lounge area. Free WiFi too.Thanks so much for letting us stay in this beautiful cottage for the week, lots of memories made â¤ï¸

Absolutely wonderful cottage in a picturesque location, the cottage is well stocked home from home with everything you could think of, the welcome basket of butter, biscuits, bread jam, tea, coffee and milk were a welcome surprise especially if you haven’t visited the store before arriving. The cottage is full of character and charm and has a lot of lovely features it’s extremely clean bright and spacious. The second dining room was an added bonus for us and the three bedrooms plenty of space for four adults a dog and a baby. 😊
