    “Well equipped,everything was covered, clean and comfortable, nicely furnished.”

    Met by Suzanne on arrival, showed round the cottage. Lots of info online and in the cottage. Great for the dogs, a little back garden leading onto another grass area, then through a gate to a fantastic paddock/field. On the border of Somerset and Dorset, not far to Lyme Regis, Sidmouth and Exmouth. Would definitely return.
