    The garden is fully enclosed and marvellous for dogs, the weather wasn't too kind to us, so we suffered muddy paws from our two German Shepherds, to be expected it's the country. Ian & Allie are lovely people and made us feel very welcome and won't hesitate to book again.

There is a long main street, with cottages either side, leading to the town square and the church of St John. Enjoy views of the coastline in the British Isles from Hartland Point.
