Guestbook


  • We loved the cottage- it had everything we needed and provided us with some much needed rest and relaxation. The local pub and restaurant served fantastic food and were literally on the doorstep. The guidebook was incredibly detailed and there were instructions for everything clearly laid out in the cottage. We were fortunate to be visiting just as the autumn colours were in full bloom and we had some amazing walks in the local area as well as visiting the mine on a particularly rainy day. Lots to do in the area whatever the weather. Fab cottage that I would recommend.
