beautiful cottage

never you mind wales
Review Submitted: September 20, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
Fantastic location, beautiful views, superbly presented, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, comfortably fitted us all in, 6 adults 4 children and 2 dogs. The drive to the cottage a little precarious with some wobbly tummies but well worth it. Would love to stay again and will definately be recommending the cottage.
