    Additional Rate and Availability Information
    Tenancy to run from Saturday 2:00pm to Saturday 10:00am unless other arrangements are agreed in advance.

    ** Longer Lets are available at reduced rates by arrangement.

    Short Breaks:

    Short breaks (up to 3 nights) are sometimes available, especially in the low season, for half of the weekly rate, but not usually bookable more than 4 weeks in advance. Please note: Easter, Christmas and New Year periods are only bookable for a minimum of 1 week.

    During the low season, and sometimes in the mid season, arrival and departure dates can be more flexible providing the accommodation is booked for a minimum of 1 week.

    Both Cottages:

    Electricity is included throughout the year but for the sake of safety as well as economy we would be grateful if wall heaters are only used 'on high' when the rooms are occupied. A quantity of turf/peat is also included. Bed linen and towels are provided - there are electric blankets for both double beds - hot water bottles for the others!
