Location perfect for us as many walks straight from the front door. Shop and excellent cafe 100yds. The property was very cosy. A well stocked kitchen and good tv/wifi. No issues. Highly recommend.

The kitchen was well equipped for our needs. The garden was good and well enclosed for the dogs. Great to see that the TV had all the streaming channels for the kids given the weather was changeable. My only criticism is the pillows, they really need changing as they are thin, flat,and uncomfortable. Otherwise fabulous
