80th birthday celebration
good size property for the 11 family members who stayed. Good quality bed linen and beds. Felt the house was looking a little tired, maybe a coat of paint would freshen it up Kitchen was well stocked with crockery and cookware. We all enjoyed our stay.

Gorgeous cottage
We absolutely loved our stay here. Owners were fantastic to deal with. Cottage was very clean, well equipped and the location was incredible. Only oversight by us is that we didn’t realise until we arrived that the kids room is actually external from the main house (separate entrance to the cottage, not inside and upstairs like I thought). Our primary school aged children were too young to sleep in this space alone as there is no access directly from the house without walking outside and at night that is not ideal. This meant we had to change our sleeping arrangements to accommodate. Otherwise, this property was perfect.
