What a gem fantastic view.
What a gem fantastic view. The Duck house had everything we wanted and more. Our visit started with a lovely warm welcome and asked to contact the owners if we needed anything. The Duck house was very warm and snug with two very large comfortable beds . A very clean property well maintained . A PERFECT stay we will be back.
