Response from the owner We are glad you enjoyed your stay in our cottage. We are sorry the Wifi was an issue for you. We have now fixed this so good Wifi is available in the cottage. We were very sad to hear your comment regarding your welcome and we apologise for this. It was never our intention. You mentioned you had forgotten your travel directions and we were amazed, you did a fantastic job at finding us without the directions. We hope you enjoyed your holiday and had fun exploring our part of the world.
