What a fabulous place to stay. The garden is well maintained and so lovely to sit out in. Loved the fact that the owners were very dog friendly and had thought of everything that our dog needed. Great walk down to the beach and so close to Fort George. Bedrooms are a great size and the beds were comfortable. Only wish that there were twin beds for the kids but we bunked them together. This didn't detract from our stay. Amazing for the kids as well. Garden is enclosed so was very safe for the children to play.
