A really lovely, cosy cottage with everything you could need.

The cottage was clean and tidy. The beds were very comfortable. We went in September and it was a bit chilly in the mornings, but I could not see where to advance the central heating. I shouldve spoken to the host, but I did not find out how to do it but we still had a very pleasant stay.
