We stayed in cottage 3 over the weekend, there isn't anything bad to say about it just a few improvements maybe.
1.the floor boards next to the bed behind the stairs in the corner need replacing. I didn't want to get out of bed incase I woke anyone as they were so loud and creaky.
2. The kids thought it should of been more themed to go with the surroundings like a farm or woodland theam for 150 a night it just seem like bland.
3. Stick some board games in there for the rainy days.
4. The decorations just didn't match, you 2 different sofas, the paintings didn't tie together and the rug seemed

We arrived slightly before 9 and owner was waiting on us with our keys. Took us through all the features in our cabin. Cabin was clean and new bedding on the beds. For the kids they had a swing park across the road. Also my son who loves animals there were sheep, a dog and chickens. All in a wee cosy cabin and fun looking at the animals for the kids.

We stayed in the cottages for three nights over new year. We also hired out the pavilion for partying and feasting. We had a great time, the accommodation was perfect for us with young families. We enjoyed walks, playing football and throwing the ball for Oscar.
