Great little cottage

Fantastic place to stay in a lovely quiet village location giving out amazing views from the windows. Has everything you could ever need for cooking in the kitchen. The only downside to the cottage is the tv is not very smart so couldnt watch any online platforms in the evening.
Stayed 7 nights in May 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 21 June 2025
Thanks for the review Cherelle. Regarding the TV, it is a smart TV but it requires guests to log into their own accounts to access their own subscriptions etc. This does of course mean that guests need to log out again before leaving. I hope that helps, it's a tricky one, we've looked at other options but this is the only solution we've been able to come up with.
