Beautiful grounds and surroundings. The cottage is very welcoming and has all that you need. Plenty of options to stay warm. Loved the ambiance of the place. Would recommend this cottage and Mayfield Vineyard as a nice break from the hustle and bustle of life. The people on the Vineyard are all so friendly too.
