We had a great time in the cottage. It had all the essentials, it was clean, the pool was just perfect and the location made it easy to get to lots of nearby attractions. Hosts were kind and approachable but not intrusive. We stayed with two young children and the place was just spot on for a young family like ours.

A great location with fantastic accommodation. We had three of the four cottages and had poor weather for May but the family re-union managed local walks/attractions in the mornings with the grandchildren enjoying the heated indoor swimming pool in the afternoons. Accommodation was very flexible with all of us eating in one of the cottages each meal. Tim and Vikki were most hospitable, both before in the planning stage and when we arrived. A great place and the family want to return next year! - praise indeed!! Rachel and Paul
