    We will definitely recommend and we will book it again. Ideal for family or groups. The people around are great and friendly too.

    Absolutely lovely house , highly equipped in the kitchen and wonderful furnishings and bedding. Washing machine was very useful and there was also detergent provided. The views outside are just outstanding. A lovely little welcome pack was left for us for our arrival which was very kind. I would point out though that the rear garden isn’t actually dog escape proof which we did think it would be but it was fine as we took our dogs out on their leads. Would highly recommend !! You won’t be disappointed

    We were blown away with the build . Especially the chains for guttering. The spectscular positioning of the house overlooking the hills and the abundance of wildlife kept us occupied for hours. The owner has thought about everything from the comfort of beds and bedding, walk in wardrobes and underfloor heating. The kitchen facilities were faultless. The owner had thought about everything from an egg timer to kitchen scales. We wanted for nothing. We especially loved the seating area in the lounge room. Plenty of space for a large group to sit in comfort and chat around a huge fireplace. It honestly is one of the best properties we have stayed in. Even more impressive that the owners father had designed and built it. What a clever Dad ! We will certainly be back. Thankyou for having us .
