Can't recommend this place highly enough. It's set in a beautiful, if slightly remote, location. The owners are very helpful and accommodating and made our short stay a pleasure. The room was superb with fabulous views of the countryside. There are lots of great walks nearby along the coast one of which will take you to the villages of Cawsand and Kingsand.

My partner and I stayed in the Cawsand Suite for the night and it was absolutely brilliant. The house is extremely well looked after - everything from the cleanliness to the decor is perfect. The rooms are well equipped and comfortable. Breakfast was on another level - fresh local produce (eggs from the garden), endless coffee and a lovely setting. Despite the Covid measures in place, it still felt like a home from home. Thank you so much for a lovely stay - we'll be back!

An amazing place to stay and the owner Breock made us feel like part of the family. The room was spacious and luxurious, the food was delicious and plentiful, Breocks father is Paul Cardew and his studio is at the side of the property, we had a very special time making some pots in the studio with him and I would highly recommend an hour or two in Pauls company if you can,
Magical place and lovely people cant wait to get back there next year!
