A little bit of Heaven on earth
Try as I might, I cannot think of anything negative to say about Beacon Cottage, it being it pretty much perfect in every way. The location is lovely, the cottage itself was beautifully equipped and presented, with every facility. The icing on the cake for us were the hosts who were charming, generous, informative and always available to answer questions or resolve issues - not that there were any. All in all, an ideal holiday property to which we shall be returning given the opportunity.
