It's a quiet, remote place in beautiful surroundings. Jean was very pleasant and helpful

This is not the case. The base maybe but the mattress is definitely not. One of the things we look for is a kingsize bed, and we would not have booked here if we had known it was a double bed. You may feel this is petty however we all have a check list of things we want when booking somewhere and as I have said we would not have booked here if we had known and the info relating to the pod should be changed

We appreciate its a small property but the lack of this facility did impact on our stay. A small table top oven/ grill would make a big difference.
