The floors downstairs were attractively tiled so no worries about a muddy paw prints on carpets. Our dog loved the big hay field outside with mowed walkways for her to run round. Terry and Sarah-Jayne who ran the holiday cottages were very friendly and helpful. Will definitely come again.

The cottage is spacious with a good usable layout. The single beds in bedroom two are uncomfortable and need updating. The bed in bedroom one is ok. The bathroom is adequate, however the shower leaks into the living room which needs cleaning up after use. The owner was very welcoming on arrival and left us alone for our stay. I would book this accommodation again.
