The information given in the red folder was accurate and most helpful. The kitchen was well supplied for our needs - thanks for the quality pans etc..The bedroom was lovely with the nice big bed. It was a little firm for me even with the topper, but fine for my husband. We appreciated the position which is walking distance to the town yet was generally quiet. Despite no onsite parking we had no problem finding a nearby space for our car.

This is a cosy comfortable wee hoose that has a welcoming feel to it, we almost felt we were coming home. It was spotlessly clean well supplied with everything we required. If coming back to the area we would certainly stay here again.
