A place to unplug and unwind.
The property was what we look for in a cottage. A small simple place to stay without the bells and whistles. It gives the feeling of living away from the bustle of modern city but still has the essentials to make life comfortable.
Inside the cottage was clean and well furnished to suit or needs (we think the old black couch has seen better days though),
Outside it would have been nice not to have the ladders and other signs of the roof repairs laying around making it look a little bit like a building site. A set of patio furniture for the deck would be nice.
Overall we enjoyed the cottage and it’s location. It was a nice break and we would stay there again.
