Property feedback
The views, the friendly owner and caretaker, the quirky set up of the building, the equipment. By the way the website pictures make the bedrooms look smaller than they really are!

,We have stayed in many properties over the years, and this one is the very best. We cannot fault it. The outstanding views from the cottage have to be seen to be believed. The owners of this cottage are to be congratulated as they have thought of the visitors' every need. We hope to return time and time again.
