    “Great cottage in a beautiful setting.”

    If you want a relaxing peaceful break then this is the place for you and great that it’s dog friendly as well. Lovely welcome pack which included fresh bread which annoyingly I left behind! And dog treats!! Jo and Aidrian were great hosts and very approachable. Lots to do in the local area but too much to do in week so will have to return!!

    Hi Catherine Many thanks for the great feedback. Shame about the bread. It is from a local baker (Glenmore Bakery). Hope to see you again in the future. Best wishes Adrian and Jo Property Owner
