Excellent clean, well equipped property in a great location.

We have stayed before and as previously the property was exceptionally clean and well equipped. The fact we can bring all our four legged friends is a massive bonus but we are responsible owners. It was lovely to get a message to say the property was ready for us early. George is a great host. The location is a massive bonus too with lots of great walks from the doorstep. We’ll definitely be back thank you.
