It was lovely and clean and really well kept. Laura was really helpful and accommodating before we arrived. There was lots of information provided about the surrounding area.

Maybe another comfy chair rather than the rocker. Communication from owner was excellent and the biscuits and coffee machine a lovely touch. Beautiful little sitting space with the view over the hills.
