This cottage is tastefully decorated by loving owners , it shows internally and in the skill and knowledge used to plant up the gardens. It's peaceful and relaxing. However the step down into the bathroom ( although clearly signposted) is very steep and awkward to negotiate safely for any one who has ANY mobility problems. The step into the kitchenRead more and from kitchen to the rear are also things to be careful of .Although this is a bungalow there are definitely issues re up and down safe access . Hide

Lovely converted cottage but beware tall people. Very warm, plenty of space very clean and the bed very comfortable. We enjoyed the patio area but not too many opportunities (weather). The location was very quiet and a good base for exploring. I missed not having places to walk locally that didn't involve roads. Definitely recommended.
