Emma
It was well equipped, had everything we needed for a comfortable and practical stay and the host was a lovely lady who went the extra mile to make us feel welcomed. We were very pleased and it exceeded our expectations. We cannot wait to return. The property had some lovely shops opposite for groceries and fresh milk, came in very handy as we got through essentials fast. Despite being near to the main road, the property was so quiet that you couldn't hear the road atol inside the house and it was like being in a homely bubble all week. Cannot recommend this place enough, even our little doggy loved it so much and felt instantly secure here. Beautiful enclosed, large garden where you get to sit and watch the sun set. A very soulful, uplifting, place if youre in need of some restoration. We didn't want to leave.
