Wi-Fi is available at the cottage for guests to use during their stay. However, as this is a traditional property with thick walls and is situated in a rural location, the Wi-Fi signal and speed can vary in different areas of the cottage.

The property does not have fibre broadband, so the connection can occasionally be less reliable or slower than you may be used to. We do our best to provide a good connection, but unfortunately it can sometimes be less consistent than we would like.

Internet access is provided for recreational purposes only and is not intended for business use. Speed and availability may vary from time to time.
