Nice location and lovely clean cottage with all the amenities you would expect and more.
8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
The house is beautiful and clean and the host was available for any issues and questions. The location isn’t what we expected so just be aware it is part of a complex where activities are available if you choose.
10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2026
Lovely comfortable stay. We would come back. Good comms.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
The house itself was nice and suited us internally. We were however, extremely disappointed with the appalling state of the small patio area, rendering it completely unusable. Particularly so, because the weather was so nice during our stay. The hedges were so overgrown that the brambles overhung the very poor seating and rusty garden table. The mattress in the single bedroom needed turning to make it more comfortable to sleep on.
