The bifolding doors fully open to both the front and rear of the property giving the feeling of bringing the outdoors inside, especially nice on a sunny day, but just as lovely on all weathers! Cook up a storm in the opulent kitchen, boasting a range of premium Neff and Hotpoint appliances, dine together at the dining table over a glass of fizz ,as the handy utility takes care of all of your muddy clothes.

  • John

    The interior is stunningly stylish and the perfect place to relax and unwind after a busy day exploring the beautiful area. The garden is pristine and includes a hot tub, bbq and outside dining area with relaxing waterfalls. In short it’s hard to imagine how this property could be improved on and over Elaine is ultra friendly and easily contactable should you need anything. 10/10

  • Bridget

    Thoughtfully presented with a focus on the guest’s relaxation and enjoyment. It was simultaneously cosy and spacious. We will undoubtedly book Heilan Roo again.
