We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Emoji House. It was very clean, very comfortable, well equipped and superbly located. The jigsaw table was constantly attended and we loved the dining area and sheltered seating. Thanks so much for sharing your lovely holiday home.

In spite of the rain we had a lovely stay. The kids had a blast with all the kayaking and spending time out doors with the pups! The house has everything you need for a relaxing weekend away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! Thanks David
