    We could not ask for more. It was clean & tidy and had everything we needed. You could not get enough of the view whatever time of day.

    Caravan ideal, grounds bigger than expected. Views are stunning. Had a tasty Chinese meal delivered to the van too. Shower lovely and strong, bed really comfy. Hugely generous amount of wood available for fireplace at no extra cost, also BBQ coals provided at no extra cost. Also cans of coke, bottle of cava and 4 pints of milk waiting for us in the fridge. Really great value for money. The owners are lovely too, we will most likely be back and have already recommended to others.

    Owner was welcoming and the gift was well received. Would benefit from wifi apart from that no complaints and would stay again. Thank you Joanne
