Lovely cottage with really helpful notes and supplies provided by the owners, great location for the town and area. The enclosed garden is good for pets but they need to be supervised as our dog decided to wander across the shed roof to the edge which was a bit scary. I would also recommend lighting the log burner on arrival if it is chilly, this hRead moreeats the house nicely as the age of the property means the central heating is not as efficient as modern properties.
