    The owners were extremely welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. The property itself is modern and extremely comfortable. I particularly liked the way it is set up to encourage guests to socialise in the little lounge area outside the rooms....

    Fantastic location away from the main resorts but everything so easily accessible. Great pubs, walks and attractions close by. Secluded but not isolated. Really well equipped with absolutely everything you could wish for. Home from home.
