“As soon as we arrived we knew we should have stayed longer”
Charming spacious cottage with a very welcoming host. Adults enjoyed relaxing by the fire in the evenings. Kids (9 and 11 years) enjoyed playing in the garden, and we were all extremely excited to spot the resident red squirrel in the garden one morning. We had been travelling for a month and really enjoyed the chance to stop in such a lovely and peaceful location for a few days. We definitely would have stayed longer if we'd had the time.
