The cottage is simple and compact however the absence of cooking facilities did not suit us. We ate out one night but there are very few eating options close by. We were confined to using a gas powered barbecue (protected with a teflon cooking sheet that seemed hazardous), and without any washing up facilities or kitchen utensils (not even a frying pan or saucepan) even a simple meal was challenging. One bed was without a top sheet and we had to ask for same when the absent (on arrival) host appeared.
