Really comfortable home from home. Maybe the best equipped cottage I have stayed in . Pretty cold out in January and very warm inside the property. I will definitely use again if available

We had an AMAZING break at Ravensmere Villa. It was very clean spacious and cosy. What a lovely touch from the hosts, a Christmas welcome basket and the house being decorated too.Very close to all the amenities and a plus for us, was a local tap room in the town, which also allowed us to take the dog in with us.Would highly recommend this property, great location....great hosts.
