    Nothing was too much trouble. We had a bottle of fizz waiting for us as we arrived which I thought was a lovely touch. The place was clean and had everything you need. Attention to detail was spot on even down to having a fresh pint of milk waiting for us. Highly recommend Jayne and Scott

    There was everything you needed, it was spotless on arrival & really cosy! The hot tub was great too. It is in a beautiful location, the booklet kept at the property provided us with things to do, places to eat and takeaways etc. The owner Karl was very attentive and made us feel welcome.

  • Jodie

    The accommodation was absolutely stunning, well equipped and so clean. The hot tub was also a big hit! We can’t thank the wonderful host Karl enough for making our stay so special. The personal greeting and little extras that Karl provided just added the icing to the cake and what was a wonderful little holiday. Can’t wait to come back! Jodie and Richie
