  • Mr and Mrs J Slaughter

    "A very comfortable and relaxing cottage that very much has its own character. Well equipped with a private patio garden and views from upstairs. Islington is a delightful small village whose pub and community shop are real assets. Altogether a very enjoyable holiday."

  • Holidaymaker

    "Lovely, comfy cottage in a very nice characterful village and though access is via single track roads, it's worth the effort!"

  • Helen Bleakley-Roberts
