Cottage in a nice remote rural area. No shops/pubs/restaurants within easy walking distance, although not a problem for us. Small gripe; the outside spaces of the cottage did not benefit from some of the views in the pictures that were used to advertise it. The view from the terrace off the bedroom was partly of cars parked outside other propertiesRead more & their rubbish bins. Overall the cottage has been finished to a good standard & provided a good base for exploring the area; we had a nice break. Hide

Perfect spot, the balcony does actually look over a courtyard and not fields, that said the views from the garden area were fantastic The stream needs a good weeding but may not be responsibility of the owners as it the other side of the fence If you want peace and quiet I fully recommend
