The cottage is in a lovely peaceful location with great views, especially in the morning when there is a early morning mist on the lake. There is ample space for parking 2 cars, plus my grand son and dog had a great time playing in the garden.

The house is in a great setting, watching the sun rise over the fields was really lovely. My nephew is in a wheelchair and the adaptations in the house enabled him to get about freely which was really good. Its very quiet on a night with very little light which is great for star gazing. Owners are just next door but in no way intrusive.
