  Probably very good in Summer.

  A nice cottage but during a wet October it was too cold. The only heating is via a log stove and it becomes tiresome to constantly feed the beast. There is no internet and even a phone signal is usually non-existent.
  The owner, a nice guy, is helpful and the home-made cake on arrival was a nice touch.
  We felt that the stabling of the horses was too intrusive for us although others may enjoy this aspect. The property is well placed for visits to many tourist spots and this is it's biggest plus.
