Summary: This property was exceptional in every way. And I do mean EVERY way. From the simple check in procedure, to lovely friendly owners on site if needed, cleanliness, a very generous welcome basket, facilities, beautiful location, easy safe parking and an enclosed garden for our puppy, I honestly couldn't find a single fault.It's an easy and beautiful 15 minute walk to the centre of the village where there are 4 pubs, a couple of cafes, independent shops and 2 x convenience stores. The locals are extremely welcoming and the coast is a 20 minute drive away.Absolutely can't go wrong with this property and I am very sad to be writing this back home as we both really miss our stay there just a day after returning.
