Had a wonderful week last week, we didn’t want to come home.
Booked after a recommendation from a friend and it was exactly what we were looking for, clean, had all the essentials and right in the heart of Wadebridge.
Hopefully we will be back next year, we loved it.
Also note to anyone looking that isn’t bringing a pet. We don’t have pets, and the cottage had no sign of pet hair or smells.
