Excellent for our family members, all over 80 years old.We particularly liked the two bathrooms. The beds were very comfortable.

I adored Rivendell. We had the most marvellous week there with the family. We enjoyed Goat fell, Ebiking and Kayaking in the glorious sunshine. The house was perfect with every kitchen utensil to facilitate cooking and packed lunches. The location is first class being close to the Pier Head Tavern and the Drift Inn. Couldn't have enjoyed it more. One small criticism is that some of the mattresses were a wee bit passed their best.

What a fabulous place to stay Rivendell is. So welcoming, warm, clean and tidy. There’s nothing we lacked or would change in any way. The views of Holy Isle are absolutely amazing. Thank you for a perfect holiday.
