Great cottage not much room in the double bed.

Kids loved the large bunk beds. Some crockery and utensils were dirty. Lovely secure garden. The settee large and comfy but needed a deep clean. The only cottage we have stayed in with no welcome pack. On the whole clean comfy and peaceful.

The cottage was perfect and finished to a very high standard.

The cottage was warm and comfortable and we lived the steam train running along the bottom of the garden. The location was quiet and very beautiful with the mountains behind. Parking for 2 cars was a slight issue. The only draw backs were no instructions for the dishwasher and the tumble dryer didn't work. The contact details for the owner in the visitors book were for a company no longer used and when we reported the tumble dryer to Sykes we heard nothing more from them. As a family if four adults the tumble dryer was an issue. Would love to visit again and adored the cottage.
