Fantastic place but don't tell everyone! 4.8/5

Fal Cottages staff was excellent. This place had everything we needed, and we hope to be back next year.

Corner cottage 5/5

Lovely cottage, well equipped and comfortable. (But need drinks coasters as we had to use the table mats on the bedside tables). Excellent location and the short steep walk made us fitter by the end of the week! Will definitely book again. Thank you.
