Very pleasant stay in the Wee Dug House, very clean and comfortable. Very pretty surroundings, the only thing missing was somewhere nice to eat locally.

Enjoyed our stay. The cottage was lovely and well equipped. A bit of a drive to any beaches but well worth it when we got to places.

It was very much home from home, however we were quite remote in location. The closest supermarket was about half an hour away. We didn't find a pub at all. The lane was exceptionally quiet which was nice. The bad bits. Upstairs accommodation was very tight in the eaves, the TV in the lounge was cheap and very bright. The kitchen, preparation and washing up area was tiny. If you ran a bath then you had no hot water for the remainder of the day. The shower was very tight. If you want total tranquility then this is the holiday and accommodation for you.
