The cottage is lovely located. 25 minutes by foot to the town center and 15 minutes to the river Exe. Parking space direct available in front of the cottage. A small supermarket is nearby. The heating did work without any issues. A dining room is not available.Alison the host was also super quickly in her response if we had any questions. You have also second key to the cottage.We enjoyed our stay at the cottage.
Einziges Manko des Aufenthalts war der fehlende Esstisch. Für uns kein Problem, wir hatten gutes Wetter und konnten draußen essen. Aber wenn es regnet?
