No faulting accommodation, excellent. Attached to working stables so some daily activity looking after the horses, but not intrusive. We were aware that the owners had dogs when we made the booking, but they could be vociferous when aware of your presence, therefore sitting outside on the patio was not always relaxing. The local shop location was not obvious. There is a pub about a mile away, as we did not visit it, we cannot give a rating. The location of the cottage was a good central point for visiting nearby Cities/Towns and other local features.
