  • "Very well appointed accommodation ideally located for venturing afield well served by local hosteleries and with good local amenities."

    Paula and Stuart are at hand to offer advice and information, they’ve got a superlative “cottage” at hand, a true home from home. Kitchen had every gadget going, the only fault, if you could call it that, it lacked a small hi-fi unit or docking station

    Thanks for the feedback Ian, we’re pleased you felt at home. Also thanks for the constructive criticism. Property Owner

  • "We received a warm welcome from Pauline and Stuart."

    From the moment we stepped into the immaculately presented Westwing, we felt at home. It's a comfortable spacious holiday home with everything you need to make your stay perfect. The modern kitchen is really well equipped and even has a rolling pin and slow cooker! It was nice that there were plastic food boxes, cool bag and ice blocks for us to make picnics to take out. We loved the beautiful sunny garden with its spacious patio area. We found the bed very comfortable and the modern bathroom has a great walk in shower. There's so much to do around the area that we barely got through half of our list. So we have already planned our return stay. (Thank you so much for the tray of welcome goodies. So thoughtful, you are perfect hosts)

    Wow Brenda these are great comments - it makes it all the more worthwhile! Thank you so much. It was our pleasure meeting you both and we look forward to welcoming you back again in summer next year. Property Owner
