If you are looking to feel more like if you were visiting a family than on holiday, this is the perfect place and host. The cottage we rented had more lovely "making-you-feel-at-home" things than I ever had myself at home. You are welcome to relax either in small corners made for that (small tables or benches surrounded by trees and bushes) or in the big garden and if you like animals, two dogs will keep you company. The cottage has everything you need, in my case way more than I even needed ha ha, in the kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom (including solution for contact lenses, a face mask!!!). I regret I live far from there but I hope to visit Donna again in future, my little boy had great time with Donna's teenager son. PS Don't bring any books or if you do, hide in those places I mentioned earlier cos otherwise (unless you are not as chatty as me) you will spend your time talking and laughing with Donna :-D
