Music - We have provided a Sonos WIFI speaker. You can connect by downloading the sonos app to your own phone/ tablet, or using the Samsung tablet that we provide at the cottage. There is a guide to using the Sonos speakers here. The Sonos speaker is linked to a dedicated Spotify account, so you should be able to listen to anything that interests you! We have set up playlists that reflect our own taste in music across the decades, but why not set up your own playlists to enjoy during your stay, and to share with other guests.

Enjoyed your stay? Would you like to stay in our cottage again? - Many of our guests find our cottages through Airbnb.
