If you do not mind single track roads and potholes when travelling in the area this is an ideal retreat away from it all. The cottage is warm and cosy and a good size for two plus two four legged friends.

Worst bed I've tried to sleep in, in years. Door latch on front door was so sketchy that we woke up to the front door being blown wide open. Telly was a postage stamp six feet from the sofa.

Location is lovely. Countryside is lovely. The cottage is kind of cute and rustic. The western theme is a bit questionable. Hide
