time there as we got there late Friday, rode horses all day Saturday and
left early Sunday.
However, the cottage had everything we required and we were pleasantly
surprised by the homely decor and nature of the cottage. We had no
problem finding it even though we arrived at dark.
We would definitely stay there again and recommend it to others.
Thanks
