Property is as described, contains everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Bed very comfortable, lovely shower, loads of hot water and plenty of space even for a fat boy like me.

Beautiful cottage, in the quiet village of Kingston. A lovely place to get away from it all, with fantastic hosts. The cottage is set up well for doggies, and has an enclosed garden. There are beautiful walks down to the beach, lovely sandy beaches for the dogs to run on. All in all, a lovely place, the break we needed.

We spent a perfect few days over New Years at Little Pear Tree Barn. The nearby coast and surrounding countryside are stunning so this was an ideal base for a walking holiday. The accommodation is very spacious with much more room than most properties for two people. It was very cosy, a great place to relax on a winters evening.
