  • "Lovely cottage and location with charming views."

    Well equipped but crockery a bit limited, in particular no large bowls (salad bowls, mixing bowls). No info about recycling provided and apparently no recycling bins (we took our recycling home with us, which was no problem).

Equipped to an excellent standard with an open-plan living area and a front decked veranda with private hot tub, Maple is a superb choice for couples looking to escape from normality.

After a day of exploring the National Forest, look forward to kicking back on the settee and choosing something to watch from the Smart TV.
