A lovely 'new build' home, which has been excellently located for a peaceful, quiet, relaxing holiday, while within easy access to the Islands attractions, for when the sense of adventure takes you. Close access to a well stocked local shop/post office, with recommended Cafe for a bite to eat and even alcohol accompaniment and local 'roadside fridge' for a sweet treat. Would visit again, local craft fair worth a visit and take a bag with you!! Enjoy! :-)
