The owner is extremely helpful. All in all - a lovely holiday.
Susan
The property is well equipped and there were some lovely treats provided for us and our dogs on arrival.

Also all main destinations were within easy reach. Unfortunately for us, being in our mid 70's, the stairs were a problem. When I booked the property, there was no mention of how steep the stairs were. It came as quite a shock when we entered the property. In this present climate I think the stairs could possibly pose a health & safety issue Having said all that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
