Nice break
Ideally located, cosy cottage. Good facilities, good heating (we stayed during a cold snap in December). Easy to find on the main road, although that main road may mean light sleepers may lose some sleep in the front bedroom. Would definitely return.

The cottage was very cosy and comfortable and beautifully decorated throughout. Tge Unser left us a basket of homemade bread and jam which was not only very welcoming but delicious. Great place to stay and explore the surrounding areas.
