I found that all the consumables I took with me were already provided. Stayed in a different cabin last year but prefer Glanton for its location with open views of the surrounding countryside. Would be handy to have a map or guide to save searching for the cabin, particularly when arriving after dark.

All the little items which make a holiday let into a home were available. Very dog friendly with throws on furniture, dog bowls and mat made things comfortable for pets also. Welcome pack items were lovely and we followed up with extra scones through the week. Brilliant open views, easy access to public footpath over open fields for dog exercise and a central location for NT properties and Coastal Villages.

The little details from the owner were fantastic. It was clean and we felt we were welcome in the cabin even though we didnât see anybody (which is perfect for us!). We were very comfortable, slept like logs on the very comfy bed. In a word it was marvellous. I would highly recommend.
