    Nothing to dislike. Ticked all the boxes and the hosts were perfect. Thankyou

  • Ashleigh

    It was just what we needed. We appreciated all the attention to detail and the cakes on arrival were delicious. We loved sitting outside and enjoying the view and our daughter loved collecting eggs with Sara one morning. Relaxing in the hot tub every day was perfect. Highly recommend to anyone seeking a relaxing break and to explore Devon and Dorset. Thank you both!

  • Vicky

    We had a brilliant family break enjoying the property and exploring the area. Watching the stars from the hot tub was special. Everything in the property is of a really high quality. Sara and Ozgur gave us a very warm welcome, complete with fresh eggs and cakes. There’s nothing we can fault - highly recommend!
