We had a fantastic holiday - possibly our best ever! We are grandparents and were accompanied on our trip by our son and daughter-in-law and 3 year old granddaughter. We all had a brilliant time, which was greatly assisted by the lovely cottage we had as our base and the warm welcome we received (Flowers, chocolates, wine, cream scones and milk in the fridge). The cottage is in an excellent position for walking or visiting the many local places of interest and beauty. Everything you could think of was provided, and as well as all of the standard thing to be expected , there were also: DVDs, CDs, books, toys and games. We woke each day to see many varieties of birds feeding outside (nuts in hangers were provided) . Our host was excellent, ensuring we were well catered fro without encroaching on our privacy. We could not have wished for more and although we do not usually holiday in the same place twice we are already considering making a return visit to Shipload Cottage. :)
