Very comfortable and extremely clean. The only tiny thing was there was no casserole dish to cook with. Luckily, we bought one for a fiver at Lidl.

The location is very much âin the middle of no whereâ and the nearest town with shops is 30 minutes away so if you are looking to relax, make sure to bring your own food or arrange for a Tesco delivery. It was a beautiful place and the air feels very fresh. The only thing is that there would be more items available such as washing up powder, and a sponge to clean our plates (more the pans that donât go in the dishwasher)! The Netflix stopped working on the second night so we resorted to watching the olympics instead, so maybe a guide on how to use the TV would be appreciated. The fridge had a little carton of milk, eggs were provided and a bottle of bubbly (thank you). The owners were very patient whilst we were late checking out and they did not make a fuss so we really appreciated that we were not rushed to leave. Thanks so much, very lovely stay!!!

There is only one thing that I personally think could make it better and that would be to put a large corner sofa in there that's the only think that could improve it but still a 10/10 for us
