The cottage is certainly cosy, the bedrooms are probably on the cramped side for a family of 4. The nice touches were the recliner sofas, they were very comfy. The kitchen was well set up. The downside was the hot water pressure was poor and not quite enough for a family of 4. We had to have quick showers and even ran out of hot water one night. In the middle of winter in a very cold bathroom with no hot water in the middle of a shower was definitely a low point. Otherwise the location was excellent, close to everything you might need.
