We had a wonderful stay and especially enjoyed the on site pool. Well stocked with a box of games and an easy to use telly (for rainy days). The owner is very pleasant to deal with as we had an issue with the stair gate while there and he just sorted it out without any fuss. Truly a lovey place

We did have a problem with the fire which the owner put right straight away, also the hot water needed boosting often as it didn't stay hot for very long . Lovely comfortable bed and shower easy to use and get in and out . Overall a lovely week except for the rain .
