The house was everything it was advertised to be!. It was spotlessly clean when we arrived and had everything that you could need. Decor was modern and the fresh flowers in the dining room was a lovely touch. Hope to return in the future.Would definately recommend this accomodation |

I just wanted to say thank you for the use of the bungalow. We had a fantastic time - the garden was great for the kids who enjoyed the space and the birds (we did feed them) The location was both private and extremely convenient. We would not hesitate to recommend you to others. Yours sincerely, Clare and David Tweddle - May 2010
