A beautiful charming cottage with plenty of space and uncomfortable bed. Easy to park out the front on the street. And the fit out inside is top class.

The wonderful character and history. Had everything we needed and walking distance to town. The sun poured in during the morning. Heating warmed the cottage in the evening. A superb shower.
