    “Well Cottage was wonderful.”

    The weather was poor for our first couple of days so the comfy sofas, wifi and smart TV all performed and kept us happy. The owners have put alot of thought into the property and everything is finished to a high standard. They have even fitted a handrail to the stairs which was not on the web photos which pleased my wife no end. The property has so many original features that make it gorgeous but these are enhanced with all the mod cons to make it really livable. Thank you and we hope to be ...
