Lovely review from one of my clients.

“What a delightful property, the village is gorgeous, the cottage directions were excellent and it was easy to find. The interior is very well planned, the kitchen dinner is big, excellently equipped (loads of kitchen utensils) and easy to keep clean.

The lounge is huge, the log burner a delight and we loved the games box.

The beds are very comfortable, the whole house and garden were super, we had a most relaxing break, love the area for walks, easy to get to the beach. We will be back”
