This is the 2nd time staying here, primarily it is very convenient for the dog which we can just let out of the patio doors. This holiday home is very good for the shower, the bed and the living space is really nice. It is just a pity that no-one seems to care, there are still cobwebs that were here last time, the headboard really, really needs replacing, it just needs a bit of TLC. We were left a small carton of milk, little sugar packets, coffee and tea. The hosts could be slightly more generous as in many other holiday lets which we also go to. Hope this helps as the views are wonderful.

The house was very comfortable with great views, ideal for dogs. Slightly remote, had to walk a way to the car park and to any facilities. The house is looking tired, as mentioned before. The headboard definitely needs replacing. Also the house could do with a deep clean. Would book again.
