Hele vriendelijke eigenaren, een ruime en gezellige cottage, een heerlijk bed en zeer goed uitgeruste keuken. Het verblijf is ons prima bevallen, maar als we iets moeten noemen wat beter zou kunnen dan is dat een wat ruimere badkamer en lekkere stoelen in de tuin. ##### Rob This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Irene 1 Jun 2022 #### fijn en sfeervol verblijf met heerlijke tuin om te genieten van zon en vogeltjes prachtige cottage, ontvangst allerhartelijkst met Cream tea.

Die Eigentümer sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Der Hauptraum besteht aus der super ausgestatteten Küche, einem Esstisch sowie einem Sofa mit TV. Daran angrenzend liegt das Schlafzimmer mit großem Bett. Außerdem ist ein kleines Schlafzimmer vorhanden. Im Bad sind neben dem WC, Dusche und Waschbecken auch eine Waschmaschine vorhanden. Der Garten konnte mitbenutzt werden. Fußläufig liegt ein echt schöner Pub mit guter Küche. Unsere Ausflugstipps: Portloe, Trewithin Garden, Carne Beach. Es war ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt im Swallow Cottage. ##### Steffen M.
