Lovely house and lovely owners. Out of the way enough to be quiet but close to everything to drive to. Perfect for what we needed it for with a couple of dogs and a couple of kids.

Very comfortable and relaxing but easy to use as a base to visit other places. Look out for the private road sign when arriving for the first time.
