The property is very spacious and the location and views are excellent. The outdoor space was also ideal for bringing a dog and allowed him to roam without us worrying that he would stray too far. There was also an impressive array of cooking/cleaning facilities available which made it easy to self-cater for the full week. All the property information was helpfully contained on a welcome sheet and route maps for nearby walks were also provided which was a lovely touch. The owners are also very welcoming and were happy/quick to help whenever we had questions. Really good spot for family/friend stays as the size of the property is very generous and it is good value for money. We will definitely be back!
