Lovely little place in a beautiful location, everything you might need for a short stay. It is called The Snug and if you are over 6ft there is some ducking involved. Parking takes some getting used to!

First impression were underwhelming. The promised Welcome Pack was no where to be found. There was a microwave but nothing supplies touse to cook food in the microwave. There was no wardrobe or anywhere to hang clothes apart from a couple of coat hangers on a hook on the bedroom door.Towels were supplied. In the bathroom there were two bath towels but only one hand towel.There wasn’t even a complimentary toilet roll in the bathroom room. The car parking space was very limited and awkward to get in and out of. Anyone with a large car would struggle to park without blocking the access to the main house. It is not a property I will be recommending to anyone
