Wildgoose cottage was very nice. For our group of seven we perhaps would not book again purely for the fact that one in the group is 86 and another has Parkisons and Dementia so negotiating a deep step into and out of the lounge from the kitchen and also from the entrance hall down into the downstairs looe was a constant mind the step echo. Overall a good spot with lovely walks on the doorstep and although we didn't use the amenities in the village there was everything you needed.
