"This was our second time at this cottage as we stayed for a short break in october last year, it is located on a very quiet back road running through the lovely quaint village, the views are amazing and the walks through the gorgeous countryside never ending! The cottage is very welcoming, warm and cosy, two lovely size bedrooms, and a nice bathroom, and a very useful laundry room, the living area is one room with kitchen dinning and sitting area in one, this has been done very cleverly making a very quaint cosy welcoming room! All the fixtures and fittings are of very high quality, and the logburner is a lovely cosy feature! The back and front gardens are very safe for your dog, and are not really overlooked giving a lovely private setting. The Cross Keys pub in the village is very welcoming, with lovely locals and good beer and the dog is made to feel very welcome! We will be returning hopefully very soon!"
