A lovely property with everything uou could wish for. Hosts were very helpful and friendly, the chalet was private and in a great location, few minutes walk to all shops, restaurants and pubs. The chalet itself was such a high standard with so many little extras, very clean throughout and everything you could need in the kitchen and bathroom, high quality complimentary continental breakfast with organic food, teas, coffee etc. TV with bonus of Netflix etc. Highly recommend!

Tucked away and lovely
We stayed three night in the garden studio and it was great.
We were provided lots of information prior to our arrival. Paul met us when we arrived and showed us around.
The garden studio is lovely. Very comfortable bed room with a table and chairs. Well Stocked kitchen with plenty of utensils, a single ring camping cooker if you want to cook.
They provided breakfast foods for us which was a lovely touch.
We really liked it and the location is great, two minutes from the town centre. Great for a long weekend stay.

Very comfortable stay
The space was very well thought out with everything i needed. Easy walking distance into town. Very friendly and helpful hosts.
Very nice property and close to all the facilities, nice to be left milk, bread, jam and lots of other nice and essential stuff.
The only thing we didn't like was the property itself is not very dog friendly, wasn't allowed to let him off the lead in the garden and the decking area was only about 5ft by 6ft, photos were a bit misleading and also the little walkway from back gate to property is pitch black after 9pm, so had to buy a torch to take the dog out.

Brilliant Stay
It is a wonderful place to stay. Very quiet but very close to all the shops etc. Well maintained, very welcoming and ideal for two people. We would like to add a big thank you to the owner for her patience in trying to show us how to work the TV. This is our second time and hopefully will return again.
thank you Gill and Roger
