Here is what a vistor has written about their stay...

"My husband and I spent the weekend at Orion Cottage, which is lovely with it's fantastic outdoor area complete with day-bed and bbq, perfect for those warm evenings. The cottage is located between the trees, looking over a marina. Just lovely! This luxury cottage had everything you need, complete with sharp knives to matching stylish fridge and dishwasher. The cottage has been equipped in style instead of somebodies old junk. Although there is a TV, hi-fi, etc, it's the kind of place that just wants to make you relax and read your book. There is also a great library of books (which I might go back just for that!) in case you finish your book while there.
The kayaks were great fun and we enjoyed kayaking around the marina and stopping off for coffee. The other islanders are very friendly.
We will definitely be back next summer to enjoy this cottage again. "
