We had a warm and friendly welcome from Margaret - who was very keen to help us if needed. No need; everything was spick and span, and all the facilities we needed for our short, relaxing stay. Great value-for-money, too. No hesitation in recommending the venue (and host) to other couples who are looking for a relaxing stay off the beaten track, but in easy travel distance off lots of places of interest. Thank you to the hosts!
A small cozy cottage, well furnished, clean and quiet. You can sleep wonderfully with the window open. Nothing is missing for comfort and relaxation. Owner Clare is very helpful and very easy to reach. Thank you for everything!
The only point of criticism: the very bad access road, which is around 100 meters long with lots of potholes and a lot of dirt.
