Very impressive and very beautiful, clean, tidy, nicely appointed cottage.It was very comfortable, with amazing views across the valleys too.Owners were really kind to us and very welcoming, and we had a great time. Will definitely come back again, and would recommend this property to everyone. It's simply beautiful, inside & out.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely farm .cottage, the owners were incredibly warm and welcoming and made us feel right at home. A huge highlight of the trip was getting to feed carrots to Rosie the horse, a truly special memory. The location is excellent offering a peaceful countryside setting whilst still being a short drive to the beach.We highly recommend this cottage and can’t wait to return Lorraine, Tom and our dog Jackie-Chan

Lovely cottage in rural location. Beautiful views, very peaceful. The only reason I would not return is the Collie dog kept on a chain for most of the day.No pet should live like that. Unfortunately, seeing this put a downer on my holiday.
