    The house is superb, the hosts helpful and I thought the provision of dog towels was a very nice touch although I had brought my own. I just wish I could have stayed longer 11/10.

    The property was very convenient for what we wanted and we found the surroundings, both town and country, interesting. The property was small but plenty big enough for two people. Interesting rooms and quirky feel to it.
