We had a very relaxing few days with our four legged baby knowing at a glance he was in a totally secured environment. The owner's very kindly allowed us to use their three ajacent fields to exercise him.The Cottage it's self was lovely, someone has a very good eye for detail, extremely comfortable bed, beautiful bathroom and a well equipped kitchen. Location was great to visit many beautiful unspoilt beaches.Unfortunately the local Pub no longer serves food, although very welcoming, so eating out meant driving.A small price to pay for such a great stay. I have already reccomend to friends.
