The well-equipped kitchens have everything you need for a self-catering stay, whilst across the two cottages, there are four comfortable bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which has a fabulous claw-foot bath, perfect for a lazy soak after a day of exploring. Each cottage has a dining room, and one of them has a large circular dining table that can seat eight guests, so you can all dine together.
