    The cleanliness and the excellent position of the property. Decorated with taste, and our two small dogs just loved it and settled in easily, especially as there was a dog bowl that had bonios in and a lovely extra touch was the engraved dog tags...

    The host had left some lovely brownies for us on arrival with a nice card which was a lovely touch. The location was good but only if you have a car, you wouldn't really be able to use these without a car as it felt like we were quite far away...
