Fabulous stay
We really enjoyed our stay at the property. The owner had thought of every little detail.The kitchen was very well stocked with equipment. (The soda stream was a huge hit with our daughters!) The welcome basket was a lovely gesture and even our beagles got treats!! The only small thing i would say which needs to be looked at, is the recyling. I found it a little confusing as the information pack said to do one thing but then there was a section, listing what could be recycled and in what container but we could not find any? We would definitely look to return to this property again in the future as it really was a lovely cottage recycling property?
