I had a lovely stay here at this house. Wendy was a kind and warm-hearted host who catered for every need. She is very friendly, and it was nice to see her from time to time when I came and went. The doggies are super cute, too. I loved the peace and quiet of the area. The gardens surrounding the house are really gorgeous; some have a French walledRead more garden feel, and it was great that I could access a lot of the spaces outside. The house had everything I needed and lots of room. It was exceptionally clean and well cared for. There are lots of small roads around the area to navigate, but they are pretty quiet most of the time, so it was fine. There are beautiful landscapes all around, lots of geese too, and I heard owls. Wendy gave me some great recommendations for places to visit. Lots of lovely beaches are only ten mins drive away. Hide
