Exactly as described in the advert with all the comforts of home. Very helpful owners when we suddenly required the services of a vet... Definitely would like to go back to Whitehills

Spotlessly clean, comfortable and with everything you need. It is tastefully decorated and linens were of good quality. It is ideally situated in the village and the garden was perfect for the dogs. We would definitely go back!
