Fantastic situation near stream. Quiet and secluded. Although outside of town it is close enough to walk to. There is a bus link but a car is essential. Cottage itself has all mod cons and came with a host of complimentaries to get you started. I was very comfortable and would rent this cottage again.

The welcome pack at the start (milk, ginger beer, biscuits and crisps!) and there was coffee and tea, as well as soap etc., so even if you arrived late (as we did) you didn't have to wait for a cup of tea!
