We had the most amazing holiday at Tiptoe. The lodge was well maintained and beautifully furnished and decorated. It is situated centrally in a beautiful village close to a number of shops and tourist destinations. Our hosts couldn’t do enough to welcome us and our two dogs and even left doggy treats and bowls out for them. We loved our stay here. Full marks.

Tiptoe is in a beautiful villsge with easy access to plenty of places of interest. The property itself is comfortable and well equipped and is very quiet. There is no dishwasher and Wifi is unstable, the only negatives.
