This cottage was just so beautiful, rustic, homely, cozy. My partner and I had our 2.5 year old and it was perfect for us. Although the weather was heavy continuous rain and freezing, we still had a wonderful time. Lots of spots around the house to play, including an undercover outdoor area and an indoor sunroom. Each window looks out onto a section of the impressive cottage/sustainable garden.
If it wasn’t so wet, we would have spend more time outside enjoying the garden and watching the chickens.
There’s some window spaces that aren’t completely covered with blinds including the front door and bathroom, but there was no one in the main house at the time so it didn’t effect us. The mattresses we found were very firm but the pillows were soft and supportive. The beds are on wheels so you can push them together or separate.
We didn’t use the heating, we were more than happy to use the fireplace which had plenty of wood and kindling to use. Given the weather, I was glad to have brought my hot water bottle for night time though. There were no knifes besides 1 steak knife that we could find FYI. Also bring all your pantry items if you plan to cook (we brought a big tub full of stuff with us 😁).
Overall we were so happy with our stay and would love to come back. If you enjoy the rustic style homes then this is a beauty. Thank you Robyn :)
