    Absolutely stunning - both the scenery /views and the cottage itself. The interior design is spot on, the bathrooms so luxurious, and the beds so so comfy. Bed linen and towels were exceptional. Great kitchen facilities and bbq facilities too - the fact a bag of charcoal is included is a lovely touch!
