Tawny was so much more than we expected, secluded and peaceful. The surrounding area was beautiful. Amanda has thought of everything you need for the perfect get away. The village pub was easy to locate for lunch. The hut was clean and very homely. Were already talking of booking again. Highly recommended.

Can't speak highly enough about our weekend away. The place was so secluded and peaceful with a wonderful view from the hot tub. The place itself was convenient, clean and welcoming. Amanda is a gem and provided everything we needed. My wife is already speaking about another stay. Thank you again!
