“a hidden haven of paradise” this cottage was superb, I would highly recommend it. the facilities were excellent and definitely a place to relax. Having our own pool was the icing on the cake. Any queries were dealt with immediately and nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely like to go again and as the house can be split to a smaller letting still with the same facilities the options are certainly tempting
