This is the best batch we have ever stayed in – great location and fantastic views and everything well appointed in terms of everything – couldn’t recommend it enough
It’s a lovely house in an excellent, very quiet position. The fire was a much appreciated touch on the couple of very wet days we had. Kitchen was very well equipped and the Nespresso coffee was awesome.
Great location, excellent cooking facilities. Why would you eat elsewhere? Master bedroom walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, a romantic retreat. Sadly, my sister and her boyfriend got to enjoy it. Will be back.
Absolutely stunning property and views, wish we could have stayed longer. Lovely welcome basket on arrival, well stocked tea, coffee and Pantry. Welcome pack was very informative. Would definitely stay again. Many thanks
As a group of 5 we had a great stay. The location was fabulous and to have a washer/dryer combo to catch up on some laundry after traveling for almost 2 weeks was such a bonus.
Such a beautiful place, fabulous accommodation with a spectacular view. Plenty of living space and private sleeping spaces, especially the ensuite upstairs. Would highly recommend the property and the service.
The home is as described and provided everything we needed for your stay. The welcome basket was a lovely surprise and the home was very clean and spacious. The host provided Nespresso coffee pods which made for a quick cup of coffee to enjoy on the deck each morning.
A very enjoyable stay. Even though the weather was wet we still had lovely meals out and the view from the accommodation was beautiful.
The facilities in the home, bathroom /laundry and kitchen were great.
