An enjoyable stay at this quaint concealed cottage, within a couple of minutes walk from the castle.
On our arrival, Flo & Terry were waiting to greet us & showed us around downstairs & left us a vase of flowers, which was a nice touch.
Due to its age, there is a slight fusty smell, even in the hot weather. Therefore we felt that the property could do with a freshen up, with new carpets, (main bedroom & lounge carpets both had stains) plus a new sofa & chair in order to avoid having throws over the furniture, which were too warm in the heat & untidy looking.
Flo pointed out that there was a brand new hob & oven, as well as other new kitchen appliances, so some improvements have begun.
The garden is secluded & peaceful, but again needs some tlc to enhance its appearance, as parts are overgrown. Again, it just needs tidying up & a few pots with flowering plants would help to brighten it up & make it more welcoming.
Overall a pleasant stay with time to relax in this sleepy village. If you need WiFi to help plan your days out, forget it as the place is deliberately without this facility & depending on your network provider, there can be no service.
