I booked the Granary on Holy Island as a surprise for my mum's 60th.
I booked the Granary on Holy Island as a surprise for my mum's 60th. There were 7 of us in total and we had a lovely time. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed. We brought our own washing up liquid etc but general pots/pans/plates etc were all provided. The living room had beautiful views of both castles. We went for a walk around the first day and the views and scenery were lovely.
When reading the description I was worried we were going to have trouble getting parked as we had 3 cars but it was absolutely no problem at all.
The fire was so lovely and cosy, it was home from home. Just a beautiful part of the world and we will definitely be going back to visit again.

Beautiful location with views of the castle and the harbour and the Priory.
Beautiful location with views of the castle and the harbour and the Priory. Would have been better if the property had a patio or deck area. Access to the house is through the neighbours yard. However the neighbours were very welcoming and friendly. We dined at the Ship and Crown & Anchor both were excellent. The island is sometimes crowded with day trippers when the tide is out but transformed into a idyllic paradise when the tide comes in.
