Great cottage. Well equipped kitchen, beds fine. Garden wraps around and is mostly dog secure - one side has thick hedge rather than fence so always keep an eye on your dog, you always do anyway!) but our Labrador didn't notice and it wasn't a problem. Ample off-road parking. Internet 40mb down/7mb up and stable. WiFi reached all areas of the houseRead more we used. Stairs steep and wobbly. Front bedrooms require going up further twisty stairs so if you have mobility issues consider rear bedrooms. Hide
