Beautiful, quirky cottage, with superb views and friendly hosts.
Beautiful, quirky cottage, with superb views and friendly hosts. The cottage has everything that you will need for a lovely holiday. The owners live next door and are lovely people. The area is peaceful and picturesque and we have had a fabulous 5 day break with our dog. Lots of lovely places to visit in the area. We were provided with a dog bed, bowl and treat for the mutt and lovely welcome basket with home grown vegetables, chutney and wine. We are intending to come back.
