Super accommodation, ideal for our short break. It has a great garden for the kids, it’s well equipped and the host ensured that we had everything we needed. If the old double mattress had been comfortable it would be 5 stars all the way, if replaced, we will be booking the place again next year.

Lovely little cottage with everything you need for a short stay. Spotlessly clean, and plenty of communication from hosts. Lovely quiet village accessed via a single track road with passing places. Lots to see and loved the ferries so don't need to drive to get about. The church bells currently ring on the hour and half hour throughout the night until about 5am so if you are a light sleeper as I am, I suggest bringing ear plugs. The bell practice also took place at 9am on Sunday morning so no lie in.
