The French Cottage

We were spending time on the island to be close to our son & his fiancé who had a new born baby .. the cottage was perfect for what we needed ... the whole family could be together for a meal which is what we envisaged ... I love to cook so it was a pleasure to find a great supply of platters & bowls.. we had a thoroughly enjoyable time at The French Cottage! Thank you so much.
