The Nuthatch is an excellent bolthole for a relaxing stay. It is well equipped and comfortable. There is access to a private swimming pool which was a treat! For me the large lounge window and covered outside area were huge pluses- being able to watch wildlife, be sat outside with a book and a hot drink was magical!
