Great little escape
Property was larger than expected. It was clean and well furnished and provided a lovely break.
Its in a very remote location, which is what we were looking for.
Very dog friendly.
some noise from the property upstairs but wasn't too intrusive.

The cottage was overall comfortable and fine. The outside area wasn't in a good state. Dead rabbit parts in multiple places. Hotel reception had the worst of it removed when requested.
Outside bench wasn't very sturdy.
Facilities inside were better, good TV, comfy bed, good water pressure, well stocked kitchen and appliances. Bathroom lacked cleanliness with a few mouldy areas.
