Myself and my husband along with our small dog really enjoyed our few days staying at Bee Cottage and would definitely like to return. Bee Cottage is in a great location and has everything that you could need. It has been renovated to a high standard and is very comfortable. The finishing touches are lovely and the welcome pack much appreciated.
