    The only thing I would say is that it would be nice to be able to have a drink in the evening outside at a bar.

    The cottage was so cute and had everything we needed. We loved the grounds and all of the family activities.

    The apartment was spacious, ultra clean, had all the facilities needed , beds were comfortable, and had really friendly hencocks and Robins that happily walked into the apartment to say hello!! Absolutely wonderful. Lovely location and very quiet at night. Thank you for providing a fantastic location

    The mattress was very firm, too hard for us and we didn’t sleep very well. This was the only bad thing for us.

    Surprisingly large for a one bedroom accommodation. Spacious bedroom and lovely garden. Resistant extremely good. Farm shop full of amazing produce. Lovely walks. We took our dog. Plenty of poo bins around the property. Perhaps have a dog field for them to stretch their legs as they have to be on the lead around the farm. A really lovely place as a base to see the rest of the island

    I did not realise there were steps in the property but that could be my bad for not checking. Made it tricky especially as mum not as mobile as she was. Not really a complaint just an observation.

    Location perfect, cottage is amazing & awarded us the comfort of a home away from home. Would highly recommend from first contact with Melanie which was clear & made everything effortless. Even to come & see us to introduce herself. The Restaurant attached was simply mouthwatering & staff very friendly.

    The bunk bed mattress was hard and springs were pushing onto my back which made it hard to get a good nights sleep. There was absolutely nothing else that I didn’t like. The bunkbeds would be fine for children but not really for middle aged adults.

    Lovely location and the cottage was well equipped and very clean. Very quiet location with peacocks and chickens walking around. Even saw a red squirrel!!!! Although I was staying there on business I would happy stay again for a holiday and bring friends and family.

    Great place to stay. The restaurant and shops are amazing as are the staff. The lemon cake is lush! The cottage was cosy and warm and had all you needed for your break away. Fluffy towels and a very comfy bed. Great fir dogs, as each cottage has an enclosed garden. The resident Peacock pays a visit, and you can watch red squrriels from the restaurant feeding from the feed stations.
