Beautiful, well equipped cottage in a scenic, quiet village.
Beautiful, well equipped cottage in a scenic, quiet village. The cottage has everything you could need and more. Back garden is small and a limited space but the house was a comfy, cool retreat after a busy day walking and exploring in the summer heat. I’d recommend it to friends and happily revisit.
