    Perfect for our needs - visiting family & birdwatching. It was small, but comfortable and had everything we needed to cater for ourselves.

    Warm and cozy and a nice welcome basket of goodies. Only really there in the evenings as I was a work most of the time and just needed somewhere to stay whilst my house was having building works done.
