    “Lovely cottage in a great location for the mountains or the beach.”

    We stayed during the June heatwave and downstairs was so lovely and cool. Very well equipped kitchen, if you like to cook whilst you’re away like me, it is perfect. The pub in the village is very dog friendly and the locals are lovely. The prices are very good too and they do food. Loved the big slate window sills, you can sit with a brew and enjoy the fabulous views. Parking was never a problem whatever time of the day, right in front of the house. The back garden is very pretty and secluded ...

    We stayed during the June heatwave and downstairs was so lovely and cool. Very well equipped kitchen, if you like to cook whilst you’re away like me, it is perfect. The pub in the village is very dog friendly and the locals are lovely. The prices are very good too and they do food. Loved the big slate window sills, you can sit with a brew and enjoy the fabulous views. Parking was never a problem whatever time of the day, right in front of the house. The back garden is very pretty and secluded down by the house. There are slate benches and a big slate table you can eat at. Just one thing though, the fence at the top on the right hand side has come down, I suspect this belongs to the neighbours, but just beware if you have an inquisitive dog like us. It’s an area we love and I think we will be back.

    So glad you had such a lovely time in our cottage enjoying all the brilliant surroundings Sarah, we’d love to have you back in the future. Property Owner
