Ideal pet friendly apartment with rural view. Very clean and well equipped; treats for humans and canines! Fenced area outside with outdoor seating. Security, safety lights on the approach. The hosts have considered the needs of guests well. The TV signal isn’t great for some channels, not a problem for us though! Lovely quiet village with vibrant and friendly pub just down the road. We really enjoyed our stay.
