    Really clean and well looked after. The owners communicated well and sent me a link of ideas for things to do in the local area. They also left milk and tea/ coffee making facilities, plus some chocolates which was a lovely gesture. I would definitely recommend to anyone and I would stay again, In fact I've booked it again to go next year!

  • Lee

    The renovation has been completed to a very high spec and for such a tiny space it is extremely comfortable and well equipped. We spent a week and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect, a short walk to the beaches and harbour and a good base to explore the island. The pub is literally a matter of feet away! We can't recommend this property highly enough. Fantastic
