A Delightful Cottage

No complaints at all. Just as it looks in the pictures. Delightful, clean, everything we could possibly need was there. Plenty of bath and kitchen linen. Comfortable, pretty, clean. Hooks on the entrance door for coats etc (noted that a previous guest had commented that there were none, but since added).

Great Spot

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was larger than the photos depicted and having access to laundry facilities was helpful. We enjoyed a drink at the pub around the corner and walking to nearby parks.
