“Great location; safe and secure; wonderful hosts; very comfortable.”
The location of the cottage was excellent; lovely views; right across the road from the little Oaks supermarket, Drak Boys Choir, fuel station and restaurant. The host was excellent and extremely friendly, and we loved his sweet, gentle dogs which visited us when we arrived. The cottage felt private and secure. It was not particularly new or modern but very comfortable, and had everything we needed.

“Amazing location with an accommodating host, but with some small little issues and things missing.”
The accommodation has an amazing view of the surrounding area, it was quite private and quiet, and the host was very nice and accommodating. There are nice restaurants and shops within walking distance of the accommodation. The accommodation didn't have a HDMI cable to connect our laptop to the TV. We called the owner and asked if he had one and he quickly got us one.
