A really relaxing place to stay! Lizzy was lovely, she was very friendly and helpful. Shopping for food is about 15mins away but the pub is at the end of the road which does tasty pub grub and dog friendly. I do recommend this house for it's location on the river which was very peaceful and stunning sunsets :)

The house was a great space for us with 3 bathrooms and large comfy beds. The kitchen was well equipped with a welcome pack on arrival which was a nice touch. Some parts could do with a little updating such as the decking area. That said that was also well equipped with everything ( apart from a bbq) and it was well enclosed for our little dog to use. Location is great overlooking the river watching the boats and wildlife. Easy walk to the Bell Inn pub which serves good food all day. Not far to travel to get to coast or places to visit which we did most days. The host was attentive without being too much and she was a fount of knowledge about the areas to see etc.
