Beautiful cottage and stunning views and location.
Beautiful cottage and stunning views and location. We hope to come back!The cottage warmed up after a couple of days - think it had been empty for a while. There is everything you need for equipment but you will need to bring essentials like milk and butter or cooking oil etc. the village shop opens from 10-12 in winter.
Lovely cottage with everything you might need for a weekend away. Beds were comfy, bath was a bonus after a long walk in the hills. Location is fabulous with spectacular views from all windows. Pub is a few steps away which was also great.

We enjoyed our week at harriets cottage .
We enjoyed our week at harriets cottage . Very quiet , beautiful scenery and lots of amazing walks . The cottage is well presented and the owner has provided a very comfortable home from home . There is no phone reception At all though so you will need to pick up a phone card to use with the cottages land line before arrival . We’re not aware of this beforehand . I would highly recommend this cottage to avid walkers , the scenery is breathtaking .
