Guest Reviews

Lucy
We really loved the location here! It's super convenient for everything we needed. The views are lovelyand it's a great spot to explore the area. Definitely worth it for anyone looking to stay nearby. We'll be back for sure!
Emma
We found that some basic maintenance was needed on a few items. The place is really only suitable for two people and a dog because of how small the accommodation is.
