Meet all our needs. Few points: back bedroom was damp and mattress needs replacing. Decking needs replacing as was rotting in places. Think this may contribute to the damp smell in the room underneath. These were the only things wrong. The whole places was beautiful and stunning views.Great week.

Lots of kitchen facilities and equipment. We had a wonderful week. Great to have an En suite! Shower room and bathroom. This is a great property. Garden good with nice outside seating and storage. Parking good Friends who were with me felt it was very cold on arrival .. this was early May and nights were cold to start. They were sleeping downstairs and there were instructions not to put the storage heaters on. Towels and washing was hard to dry. No towel rails in bathroom. Surprised to have to pay for bedding and bring own towels.
