An absolute beautiful property, with a fabulous safe dog friendly garden.
An absolute beautiful property, with a fabulous safe dog friendly garden. The cottage is really big, it's a brilliant kitchen, dining area in the conservatory and large comfy lounge. Bedrooms were lovely and the shower was excellent. Very very peaceful area. Local amenities were lacking as there are no shops or hostelries for a few miles, however this can be a godsend to those seeking peace.
