Reviews
An absolute delight. We'd explain the layout, but we wouldn't want to spoil the excitement of going through each door and being surprised at how beautifully the house has been modernised. Yes, there are some steps, but worth the effort. The furniture/equipment is of the highest quality and the kitchen has everyone that you might need. In fact, like all the best places, we were worried that someone had been evicted so that we could stay. It's literally a stone's throw to the leisure centre and at the heart of the village. We had such fun sitting in the covered patio dining room watching the people recover from kayaking down the river. It was just the two of us, but this property would work for families or friends.
