Very friendly and helpful owners. Cottage was immaculately clean and tastefully decorated. Shower was ideal for someone with reduced mobility. Welcome cream tea, with some milk, tea and coffee provided on arrival. Very convenient location for visiting some lovely gardens, RHS Rosemoor approx 20 mins away. Coast also not too far away. Lovely and peaRead moreceful with outdoor furniture to relax and enjoy the views. Would definitely recommend. Hide
