We have stayed here twice and will definitely be back. What's not to like? The property is set in an idyllic location; the generous, airy, well-fitted comfortable accommodation is decorated with impeccable taste; the welcome is warm... There is everything you could possibly want from a holiday! Highly recommended.

An amazing and comfortable cottage in a stunning location. Fantastic views. A great area to explore. Hot tub was much appreciated by us all. Advisable to arrive with food as there aren’t any shops nearby.
