Summary: Wow! what a beautiful house, Old Lock Cottage is, so comfortable and well equipped. Everything you could want is provided, so clean and well equipped. it was a pleasure to return to the house each day after our excursions. Lovely secluded patio and garden to relax in and just a short walk to the marina and refreshments at The Boathouse. Wonderful holiday in a beautiful home.
