It is very cosy cottage in a quiet farm.The cottage is very clean, tidy and it was over our expectation. Our group contained of 3 couples and 2 kids. Kids were entertained all the time either by play room or by swings outside or by feeding the ducks. Also some games and books were available in the cottage. Kitchen is fully equipment. Bathrooms newly fitted and perfectly clean. Only one inconvenience which we found but perfectly can be accepted, that the toilet is missing upstairs. Highly recommend this cottage as it is on beautiful place and welfare by the owners were excellent. |
