The house was beautiful and very comfortable. Had everything you needed for your stay. and the three bathrooms were a godsend with 2 adults and 2 older teenagers.

A great location for days out or a walk into town but the return is a steep climb. Not suitable for a wheelchair but easily worked around. Dont let that put you off.
