Homely. Very much a country feel. Great open fire with generous supply of kindling and coal. A good base for walks and visits in a friendly village.

Lovely cottage - good for the 6 of us with comfy beds and warm showers and heating worked well. Only main issue is that kitchen could be better set up for 6 people cook and plates wise.
