The property was lovely, clean and with everything you could possibly need. The views are breathtaking but it is situated at the top of a very steep hill. We got around this by walking down and getting a lift back, this didn't stop us enjoying our stay. We would highly recommend this property

Beautiful home at the top of the village hill, which is more like a mountain and not for the faint hearted. Walk past the local school for a more gradual slope walk. Beautiful bedding and views from the property. For a party of 10 the fridge and freezer are small, especially if you want cold drinks.

We had a truly magical stay over Christmas. The house was perfect and was kitted out with everything and more that we needed. Charlotte was so helpful and professional. Beds were super comfy and house was immaculate. The garden was perfect for our dogs as it was secure so they could go in and out as they please. Thank you for an incredible stay.

Absolutely amazing property with everything that we needed and brilliant views with perfect sunsets. The best bed I have ever slept in. Only downside was the location.
