The photos did not really get across how really lovely cosy and warm the cottage was.

Review:

The cottage has a really lovely wood kitchen that is newly fitted and is of a very high standard. The lighting and fixtures are all of a high standard and add to the lovely atmosphere that the cottage has. It is set in a really quiet setting where there is no noise, just peace and you wake up to the sound of the birds. The cottage had skylights and it was lovely to lay in bed and see the stars in the night sky. For dog owners like us there was a field next to the cottage where he could go and stretch his legs prior to a walk on the nearby lovely beaches and coastal paths. The cottage is at the base of the Presilli Hills so perfect for walking, with fantastic views and a choice of different walks.

Please note that we have now fitted blinds to the skylight so that guests can choose whether or not they wish to see the stars at night!
We are able to provide a travel cot and highchair if you are a couple with a small child. There is grazing nearby for horses, by arrangement. If you would like to know more about The Old Pottery please visit our web pages here or here
