August 2019
We returned to this cottage after a lovely stay last summer, this time for 2 weeks.. On arrival the cottage was as expected, clean and welcoming (no doggy smells or dog hair!). The bedrooms were tidy and cosy, shower was fine. The kitchen is very large, plenty of room to play a game of scrabble or cards, as we did most evenings. There is an instruction book for bin emptying details and the workings of any appliances, also a book recommending days out. The garden is huge and lovely to sit in in the afternoon when the sun peeks through the trees. There are beautiful views of the mountains in town and many lovely walks to explore. We also visited the ponies over the road daily, the all brown one being friendly and running to see our dog, the brown and white is more shy. Despite the rain this time we went out every day on a walk or to visit a local attraction and looked forward to getting back and warming/ drying ourselves in front of the open fire! My sons favourite part was to light the fire and play games, our dog enjoyed sprawling out across the kitchen floor after a walk and sneaking up on the fake sheep in the garden (he thought they were real!), I personally loved seeing the bats fly over the garden as the sun went down and my Father liked to sit in the rocking chair in the kitchen with a cup of tea!
