    They gave guidance regarding places of interest, whether it be historical, sport food or shopping. Ann was always on hand if I needed anything and made made the whole experience feel like home away from home. Thank you both.

    ! From the first turn of the key the cleanliness and comfort was quite apparent. Every home essential and more was provided. The location was ideal for all our day trips around the west, such relaxing and restful surrounds to return to each evening. Anne, the owner was exceptionally helpful, very knowledgeable on the history of the area, her recommendation of where to visit, eat, etc... such an appreciated extra!! A very memorable week, thanks Anne
