We actually stayed here in April 2018, the views were outstanding and the location great for exploring, the place was well equipped and we took our miniature schnauzer who loved it, I would definitely go again, the only downside was that the bedroom was straight off the staircase and unfortunately my partner went sleep walking on our second from last night and woke up falling down the stairs breaking his foot in the process, so a stairgate would be useful !!!

We stayed here over New Year. It is a beautiful property. Everything in it is of a really high quality. The bed was really comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. It was warm and cosy which was great to come back to after doing many of the walks right on your doorstep. Very relaxing to watch the moored boats floating outside the living room window or from the bedroom window. The bathroom was very stylish. We loved it here and would highly recommend it.
