Had an amazing week at Cracken Cottage for the New Year, with family.
Had an amazing week at Cracken Cottage for the New Year, with family. The cottage was spacious and comfortable and lovely and warm and cosy. All of the bedrooms were a great size and very well presented. The lounge was a great area for relaxing there was lots of space for everyone.

Fab that the dogs were welcome FOC too.A great base to explore the area with so much to offer. Overall very impressed and would love to stay again!
