“Wouldn't stay here again, there's much nicer places in the area.”
House was adequate but very sterile & basic facilities, furnishings. Not inviting, no sofa, no Freeview TV, no washing machine or dryer. Not very private, not much of a view. No games or books. Website didn't show which photos related to the cottage vs the front house.

“Perfect for our needs!”
I had the best sleep I have had in a long time. It was very quiet, warm and very accessible. Away from the hustle and bustle! The facilities were perfect for our needs. We enjoyed hanging out in the lounge area as there was plenty of room!
