Millside is a fabulous house just off the main street, easily accessible and great for my elderly parents, within walking distance of everything. It is well equipped and comfortable and really we couldn't ask for a better base. I have recommended this house and will continue to book this house. We love it.

We have stayed here on a number of previous occasions. It is very accessible and within relatively easy reach of numerous places of interest to visit. House is well maintained and spotlessly clean.Profuse apologies to whoever discovered our dirty dishes in the dishwasher - I put everything in and forgot to switch it on, sorry. 😞
