    We appreciated the useful information on arrival regarding where to go in the area. Overall a lovely long weekend, we will definitely return.

  • Kevin

    Nice and private with a lovely view of the lake. Would definitely recommend.

  • Jeannie

    Everything was spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable and attractive. It had all the gadgets you could possibly need and lots of extra touches like note pad and pens, lots of board games and reading books. We loved playing pool and the fishing lake was fantastic as was the hot tub. Parking was easy and the nearby village provided a handy shop, petrol station and fish and chips takeaway. The only negative was the traffic noise, being next to a busy road, but this was not a problem for us. We had a wonderful week!
