Christine and Dave decided to camp, however without any of our camping gear we took the soft opted and rented a cottage for the Friday and Saturday nights. Much of the self catering accommodation situated closer to the beach was already booked out so we ended up choosing Brook Cottage on the outskirts of Burry Green.
We left Oxford around 1pm hoping to arrive at the cottage in time for some exploring. According to our trusty friend google maps, the 160 miles should take 3 hours. However with a 30 min break and the weekend traffic slowly building, we arrived at the little cottage by 5.30pm.The final section was s small one car width lane lined with pink geraniums and just as we were wondering if we'd taken a wrong turn, two cream buildings appeared - one being our cottage and the other Fairy Lodge, from which a small brown yapping dog (Trin) emerged shortly followed by it's owner Stella.
Stella showed us through Brook Cottage. With it's low ceilings, quirky shaped rooms, wood fireplace and large lush garden, we fell in love instantly with this beautiful cottage. There was even a bottle of their own pressed apple juice on the kitchen table!Our spaghetti bolognese tasted better than normal as we enjoyed our dinner overlooking the back garden.
