Great place to stop for the night, just sorry we hadn't planned to stay longer! The house was very comfortable and there is so much to explore in the area. Jeffrey was very welcoming and helpful and we'd be happy to stay there again.

Peaceful
Everything you might need for every contingency is in the property. Best suited to a larger family rather than just a couple. It is an older dwelling formerly a holiday camp building and so is a little dated and tired but does the job nonetheless. The location is difficult to find but the host is very helpful and can guide you in when close. A drop pin on a map would solve that easily though.
