The location was stunning and the hot tub was amazing close to all local amenities and sea side was a real bonus too..the only downside i would say is that it didnt feel as private as i thought as the owner was staying in annex underneath us plus there was stables 30 yards away however i did enjoy my time there

Overall we had a fab stay. I will say that if you have a family member with access issues, disabilities or are infirm, this might not be the place for you. The steep driveway isnt easy for people with good mobility let alone for anyone without. Its a beautiful house though with amazing views and the complimentary items we had waiting for us wereRead more a lovely surprise. The house was very clean and very well stocked with everything you need, even down to spare towels for using in the hot tub. I would come definitely come back again. Hide

A lovely cottage, very welcoming and cosy. All amenities were of high quality and very clean. Good location with great views. Hosts are lovely, really friendly and on hand if any problems. Grandchildren were thrilled to meet the dogs and horses. Thoroughly recommend it for a family holiday.
