    Property was warm and fairly good, but could have been better. It was dark inside and the outside space was dismal, not conducive at all for sitting and relaxing. It always seemed to be in shade and the garden furniture was poor. There was no visitor book and no up to date reviews on line.

  • Kim

    Lovely surroundings and very quiet. An excellent base for our birdwatching trip.

  • Linda

    Did have a problem when we arrived but the owners sorted it as soon as they could which was much appreciated, thank you both.
