This cottage is absolutely beautiful. So full of character, cosy yet spacious and with all the mod cons. The peaceful garden gets the sun almost all day and so we didn't feel the need to venture far at all. We didn't need to take our cat this time, but were delighted to see that both cats and dogs are welcome here. We had all the information we needed for a smooth journey and check in/ out. In all, this outage was perfect for us and we would highly recommend it .

Me my daughter and her mom stayed here. It was exactly as pictures showed. Spacious, good kitchen, very equipped(even had a pizza cutter) It was such a historic feel, staying in a home/cottage built so long ago. Rough sawn lumber, the thatch style roof. So fun. We stayed from USA, so we rented a car for the country. For our city days, the train station was 10-15 minutes away, and got us to downtown quicker than driving. I would recommend checking out bus routes and train routes before traveling, as even my international service has not done well. All in all a wonderful stay, quite, peaceful. 11/10
