The view and sunsets were spectacular. The property was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Some of the furnishings were a little tired but perfectly serviceable.

House had everything we needed. Views were amazing and close to everything. Daily visits from Rudy the donkey were always welcome. The owner John is a lovely man and on hand if you need anything. We will definitely return to this gorgeous cottage.
