Tim Mill cottage stay

We absolutely loved our stay at the Tin Mill cottage. The owner Marcia was so helpful along the way and was quick to respond to any questions! We stayed with our 4 young children and it was in a quiet area where they could have space to run and explore nature. The cottage was very clean and well stocked. Would definitely recommend!!

This property provided a perfect location and easy access to the points of interest. Fully stocked kitchen, however we used only a few cups and bowls during our stay. Linens were nice, house was very clean and plenty of room, there were 3 of us, all adults. We enjoyed sitting outside for a few hours one day. I would stay again!
