The property is often described as cosy and comfortable, particularly the bed and linens. However, some guests noted the property's size as a limiting factor for comfort, especially for longer stays or in poor weather, indicating that while the property is comfortable, space is a constraint.

Mr Seddon
Very cosy and full of character. Really "away from it all" - so nice to see the sky with no light pollution.

Mr Norris
Suitable for small people. Sofa too small.

Small tiny living which has everything you could need in the most stunning location; everything on the doorstep. The free car parking pass was great and we enjoyed not only the welcome pack but 10% discount card. Not only would we recommend but we’d love to return.
