We have stayed at this property several times and have enjoyed it every time. You may want to check the garage roof outside the house door. May be a bees nest there.

Enjoyed our stay, plenty of room and a well maintained and clean bach. Off street parking was good but a little tight for the boat.

This house is perfect. Lovely and clean and tidy!! Can't wait to stay again. An extra bit of seating in the lounge would be super helpful as not really enough seating for four adults and 2 kids. Outside of that, amazing. A real hidden gem.

Lovely property to stay in. The online accuracy was very good but should advise boaties that the property does not accommodate boats. The driveway parking is good for cars only. It was impossible to park the boat on the property because of if there are cars parked on the road you cannot access the drive towing a boat in or out. We had to leave the boat on the narrow road. This would cause a major boat parking problem during busy season.

Great bach

Great bach

Great experience overall. Lovely bach and very clean with great facilities. My only (very slight) two criticisms are it would be awesome if there was an armchair on the other side of the living room as the big sofa is great as are the two beanbags but we just felt an armchair would help with enough seating for adults. The other slight criticism is the stained looking day mattress in the living room needs a clean and covering. It would look so lovely in the little sun room with a cover and lots of cushions as a reading spot! But very lovely bach and great sized indoor and outdoor dining tables and lovely bedrooms, thanks for the great stay!
