This house was perfect for our family and small dog for a long weekend - and would be very comfortable for longer stays. It's location is fantastic, and everything you need provided.
Murray was the perfect host, easy communication and very easy check-in. The property was very clean, well presented and quiet. Loved our stay will definitely book again
Loved this house perfect location, and super clean. Has an automatic coffee machine but remember to take your grounded coffee. I got the short straw and the single bed room which is not square so it took me time to adjust to the bed not in a square position. Would I book again - YES!
We had a wonderful stay at Murray’s property. The views and location were amazing and the property itself was extremely clean and had everything we needed. Communication from Murray and Beth was excellent. The basket of local produce was a lovely touch. Thanks for a grea stay!
