    It was warm and cosy without needing to light the wood-burner. This was the first time we'd stayed in a cottage that was not in walking distance of a pub/restaurant, and that did make a difference to the pattern of our days. Less local walking, more going out by car to local highlights. Which are many and varied..In two weeks we never ran short of things to do each day.
