Perfectly presented House in a quiet spot
The house was presented immaculately and the owners were just great to deal with. We were on a boys golf trip and the four beds accommodated us well. The property is situated in a really nice quiet area. The house had everything we needed including a nice clean bbq and sky sports. This house is perfect for any group of 4 and I would highly recommend it. We really enjoyed our time there and look forward to coming back again one day.

Easter weekend stay
Great location, very clean with all necessary amenities. Very quiet and serene. We really enjoyed our stay. Nice space for those with smaller kids as it’s all fenced off and has a cute pond nearby. Only thing I’d add is more dining chairs as there’s only 4 and we were a family of 6 so couldn’t really sit together and didn’t want to use the couches as they are white. This is more of a nice to have and not a criticism. Would highly recommend.

A beautiful place
One of the best baches we have stayed in. It had everything you need to have a comfortable stay (check the cupboards) and was fenced which was great for letting the kids run around. The house and the location are even better than in the photos
