Lilys Cottage is gorgous very comfortable with everything you need. Dogs are made welcome with throws for the furniture. The little garden at the front of the cottage was so pretty and such a lovely place to sit in the sunshine. The owners were friendly and welcoming. We would definitely stay again.
