Lovely setting. Very peaceful if you ignore the cockerel and crows. Very friendly and accommodating with the dog. Doesn’t have a secure area outside for the dog or to sit and chill in the evening. No TV so bring a book.

Stunning location, very rural. Views from the cabin were beautiful. Basic kitchen but pretty much everything you need. Very clean & comfortable. Short drive to the village & the lakes.

We had such a nice relaxing time at the cabin with our doggo. Even though the kitchen is minimalistic you literally had everything you needed. There is a booklet in the cabin which tells you everything you need to know about the area including walks, shops and the beach. We loved it here
