Host have covered all the bases to make your stay as pleasant as possible, by providing tea and coffie to settle in before you need to go shopping. Itâs very dog friendly. With most people bringing their pets with them. On occasion others dogs would wonder into the accommodation but my children loved and encouraged them to do this. We also meat a goat that belonged to a long term tenant. You can imagine the excitement. We have booked to go again next year to include our dogs.

And private swimming pool was just luxury. So many days out in nearby surroundings, always something yo do! Only down point was lack of Internet connection and no channels available on the smart TV. But you'll be too busy exploring, only noticeable if you have kids.
