“Fabulous holiday”

Reviewed 14 May 2021

Only arrived back home today and already looking to book again next year! The property was quirky but very well equipped with everything we needed. We had the grandchildren with us and the boat and canoe were a huge part of the attraction for them. The hot tub for other members of the family! Sam was very friendly and guided us through everything we needed to know. A small dog was added to the booking at late notice and the owners were happy to allow that. Communication with the owners was quick and helpful throughout, even a check up phone call on the day after we arrived. So glad we got lucky with our choice!
