During the summer you can pull open the French doors onto the Juliet balcony and feel a cool breeze flowing through the interior space.

    We could not find a tin opener and our last night we could not use the hot tub, due to the small of stagnant water. Other than that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you Sharon.

    Very clean and spacious and with ample room to spread out and relax. We loved the location and the aesthetic and being able to get the car backed up into the carport (albeit not fully) was a welcome addition. Overall, really fantastic and a very relaxing place - especially when including the opportunity to use Sky and Netflix of an evening. Only a few cons really and one of which is our personal taste. All the mattresses in the property tended to the incredibly "soft / bouncy" so if your preference is for a harder mattress this will be a bit of an adjustment and secondly, the hot tub cover is split meaning that whenever it rains (which during our stay it did non stop anyway) the tub will fill with rain water (as it's not covered over) and get very cold. Didn't affect us personally due to the weather being unsuitable for using it anyway - but thought I'd point it out. Oh and (Colombo-esque) one last thing, the frying pans are a bit bowed in the middle (just makes them a bit unstable during use) - but that's honestly nitpicking a little. Overall, a thoroughly recommended location with a wonderful view over the town to the hill opposite and a comforting atmosphere to relax in. Thanks for such a wonderful stay.

    We were slightly disappointed with the state of inside some of the kitchen cupboards and bedroom drawers when we went to unpack, however once I’d cleaned them, we were happy with the rest of it. It’s a short walk into the town area with a good pub being about a 5 minute walk. The owner was very helpful when we had a problem with the internet, which was due to the storm, so absolutely outside her control but she still helped and kept us updated on the situation, thank you.
