Stayed at island yard with all the family, 10 adults and 4 kids, for a significant birthday celebration at the end of March. The house is a perfect party house, having all sorts of entertainment for all ages. Gemma and Howard (owners) were very welcoming and couldn’t do enough to ensure our stay was as special as it could be. The only thing they couldn’t sort was the weather. We will definitely go back. 😁😁😁

I stayed here with a group of friends over the weekend. Gemma was quick to respond to all queries and gave me all the relevant information well in advance. The place is gorgeous with an incredible back drop. Communal spaces were great, with the built in soundsystem throughout. We were pleasantly surprised with the cabin bedroom in the garden too. All in all will definitely look to book this place again in future.
