The most comfortable beds we have ever slept in. Spacious rooms and very well equipped. Robes were a nice touch to use to and from the hot tub. Friendly owners. We would recommend this for a family group.

Angela
This a beautiful holiday home, everything you need for a great holiday. We had 3 generations of our family staying, including infants and there was everything we needed. The 4 bedrooms are all good sizes beds were really comfortable having the 3 bathrooms was really good, the kitchen is really well equipped with good options for both dinning in or alfresco. We all looked forward to coming back to the house at the end of our days out as it felt like a real home from home.
Beautiful property with loads of character and lovely country views. Extremely comfortable and spacious. Will definitely book again.
