    We picked this property for the location, it’s walking distance to our family. The children very much enjoyed the attic bedroom. It was an adventure for them to stay there. There has been obvious care taking to preserving the original cottage with modern upgrades ie heat pump and double glazing. Owners were very helpful and friendly.

    Very good size of cottage, had everything you needed. Very good location in the middle of the peninsula. Lovely to have the sheep come up to the balcony and being able to feed them (our kid loved it). Loved the farm experience, the peace and quiet and the lovely reception by our host Paula. She was even so kind to babysit our 1.5yr old so we could do an evening activity. Also very good tips for activities!
