      Beautiful welcoming home and the host could not be more welcoming. We had a fab week exploring then back to a cosy home at the end of the day.

      Beautiful, very homely and spotlessly clean. Good secure garden for dogs. Cake, bottle of Apple Juice and treats for your dogs. Was made so welcome. Highly recommend.
