Summary: The cottage was immaculately clean, well equipped, comfortably furnished and tastefully decorated. It is set in beautiful countryside and a short drive from both Woolacombe and Ilfracombe. The grounds are lovely, especially the lakes, and Janine was the perfect hostess, friendly and helpful.
