Such a perfect, cosy, well equipped holiday home for exploring all the lovely places the local area has to offer. So many fantastic walks with the dogs close by, the garden area was also great for them! Everything exceeded our expectations and we will definitely be looking at coming back :)

Everyone we met on the farm was really friendly. The cottage is located within easy access to the coastal path and I found this invaluable for accessing some of the less visited beaches.
