Beautiful cottage

If we‘d known how beautiful this accommodation really is, we would‘ve chosen to stay much longer than three days. The cottage really is in the middle of nowhere, so having a (rented) car is a necessity, but the view is 100% worth it. Highly recommend if you‘re looking for a quiet stay with friends or family. Thanks again for everything, we’ll be sure to be back in the future!

Just perfect!

An amazing property, immaculately clean with absolutely everything you would need for a fully self catering holiday. A delightful place to holiday both as a base and for cosy, relaxing comfort on the 2 rainy days we were there. Spectacular views from the cottage inviting you to walk the western way. Couldn't have wished for a better home from home. Thanks very much Dolores for your excellent communication with us, your obvious care and attention to detail in the cottage and for providing such a wonderful holiday home.
