It was awesome and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a quiet relaxing place to stay as it covers all of those areas and my Labrador Retriever William adores this place, he loves the decking area to sleep in the sun!! Never seen him looking so relaxed, our little Jack Russell loves the big field to run around in and loves looking out at the wonderful views. Many thanks to Mark and Lyn for another wonderful week

Was our 2nd visit & we love it. The outdoor area for the pooches is also a fab size. Could even get a sitter for them as we did have a meal booked at The Sardine Factory for my other half birthday treat. Going to book again for next year, look forward to our visits

Four adults and four pooches., big enough and cosy enough for all of us. Our stay was in the middle of January. We were extremely lucky with the weather, it didn't rain at all. The kitchen was well stocked up with utensils and crockery. There was even a drawer full of tea towels. Moving to the front room, enough room for us to sit down and enough watching TV. The bathroom was lovely too, again stocked up with flannels, even a hair dryer and straighners in the drawer. The bedrooms were lovely and comfortable. But was was more lovely was the really big windows showing of the fabulous view. Wow that was amazing and when the sun shone you were lovely warm and toasty. So the icing on the cake for us was the lovely big lawn for the dogs to play in, they absolutely enjoyed themselves. The owners couldn't do enough for us, offering to come and let the dogs out for a toilet break if we wanted to go out for the day without them. We did go out to the Smugglers Inn for meal without the pooches which was a real treat. We visited Seaton Beach which was lovely, you can park next to the beach all on one level and Golitha Falls, after one walk there we stopped and had lunch it was amazing. Both these places are very dog friendly. The only downside to the holiday was that we had to go home. Would we visit again, YES in a heartbeat... Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday.
