    Really well equipped and very comfortable. Definitely rent again .

    I would just ask for a couple more smaller sauce pans please. I would recommend a stay here to all my friends and will come again soon.

  • Brenda

    Easy to find. No parking problems. Well equipped. Just be aware, there is no grocery shop in the village and no petrol station for 5 or 6 miles!
