Fantastic views over the Gannell Estuary. Literally seconds across from the property to walk with the dog. Clean, bright and very spacious. Excellent facilities, Ninja airfryer and multicooker did all our cooking! The jacuzzi bath was lovely. Welcome scones jam and cream. Gillian the owner is lovely and easily contactable. Extremely quiet neighbourhood. The only negative for us (we both have creaky joints!) was the settee. It has seen better days and was so low that we really struggled to get up! An excellent base and would thoroughly recommend.
