An absolutely gorgeous cottage and very warm welcome, made to feel completely at home from the moment we arrived! The fresh eggs and cream tea was a wonderful touch too. Location was perfect to visit lots of local sights, most of which were recommended in the welcome book, we had a great time and would definitely come back.
