It was a very comfortable, quiet place to stay. Easy access to the village and walks. The unmade road has to be driven along with extreme care.

Great property with EV charging. Love this village and have stayed a few times nearby. Cottage is well equipped and welcome wine and milk appreciated. Laundry room is great for drying wet suits etc. beds comfortable and all furnishings / equipment high end. Pub in village is excellent with rotating craft beers and ciders, but food limited to pastieRead mores (which were great) would definitely stay here again Hide

We were very impressed with the cottage and facilities it had, also the kind extras the owners provided as a welcome for guests. The only negatives were the unmade road access which wasnt very clear in details and the fact it was very ideal for big time walkers and hikers but not strollers like we were, which wasnt their fault.
