What a perfect find for a relaxing break. Sandra was a lovely host, goody packs and many extras were provided. We enjoyed our bottle of fizz in the summer house .. thank you. The house was very clean, all on one level and had everything we needed & more! So many places to visit and lovely walks on the doorstep. We also had really good weather ☀️. Thanks again Sandra
