The accommodation is advertised as dog friendly but it isn't! Only the downstairs is! No one takes their dogs on holiday only to leave them in a kitchen. The place wasn't very clean and the property too close to the owners who can observe everything from the outside which feels like an invasion of privacy. If you park outside the property, you Read moreare told you are not covered for any insurance. Fortunately we have our own on our cars but still... Two members of our party struggle with mobility and asking for permission to park outside the property felt like a problem and an inconvenience. However this ask was accommodated. Hide

A great size for our 9 family members ( x3 families) and 2 dogs. A lovely welcome cream tea on arrival. Dog notices are a bit disappointing, as the living area is upstairs where dogs aren't allowed.

Towels were past their best, and bath size rather than shower would've been appreciated. A lovely sized property, but just needs some maintenance and updates. Hide

Good location, clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Only a small courtyard for outdoor sitting and no view from this space. Lovely view from upstairs sitting room. 2 large double rooms but the twin and bunk bed rooms are small.
