The cottage was too isolated for us ,it was clean and comfortable.
The cottage was too isolated for us ,it was clean and comfortable. The welcome pack was disgusting it comprised of two packets of rock hard cookies,not even a bottle of milk.Anyone going make sure you take your own.The spare bedroom had knowhere to hang your clothes.and the washbasin in the bathroom was too small for us.Bearing in mind it is on a farm we did not see one person or one animal.We will not be returning.
