I didn't even go here but I'll give it 5 stars anyway because it looks nice and the software that said I visited was obviously not very good (Google maps I presume)

Beautifully furnished, open plan, yet cozy, cottage feel. Three good sized bedrooms, double with spacious en-suite. Two twin rooms and a separate shower room with toilet and basin. The kitchen is very well equipped, well designed and very good quality. Far more than one would expect from a holiday let. In fact, the whole space exceeds expectation. I could quite happily live in a space like this.
