"Enjoyed our stay very much wished we could have stayed for longer."

10.0

Great location, stayed in the Fishing cottage which was very comfortable with exceptional attention to detail regards decor. Dave and Helen were great hosts, Dave brought breakfast over in the morning including fresh scrambled eggs and home made jams. We had a great meal in a local hotel which they had recommended and thoroughly enjoyed being shown around Dave’s ‘messy shed’ and seeing his 350 Mustang. A great place to stay.

Nothing, Dave and Helen are wonderful hosts providing great hospitality in well appointed and quite exceptional cottages.
