  • Susan

    ! Otherwise, we all agreed it was the best holiday cottage we had ever stayed in. The location was amazing and the hot tub the star attraction. It comfortably accommodated 12 plus 2 babies. We all thoroughly recommend this property.

  • Jon

    Everything about our stay was ideal. (One quibble: maybe a heads up in the information pack about the total lack of phone signal?)

  • Nick

    The wine & chocolates were a very welcome surprise. Thank you for our stay.
