Loved every moment in spite of terrible weather at first (but even then wild, remote, beautiful). And then four evenings sitting outside in sunshine just loving the sight and sound of the ocean. An absolutely superb week. Thank you.

The views are stunning and if you enjoy walking the location is great. The quality of the furnishings is good and it is well equipped. However, for this quality of holiday let I would have expected a higher standard of appliances, although I appreciate tenants often fail to look after them properly. The cooker clearly needs attention as I struggled to get it to function. Glassware needs addressing as does kitchenware if property let to capacity. If you are looking for a quiet and restful holiday or seeking inspiration for writing, painting or photography this property should be on your list. I was without both power and water for a complete day with no warning or notice, which is unacceptable considering the rental charged and the deserted location.

..Even better than the photos! Myself and my family had a wonderful week. The views are amazing and the property had everything that we needed for our stay. We would definitely book again and would recommend anyone else to do the same.
