Delightfully decorated, clean and comfortable space to spend away from home. Everything we needed and more! Our hosts Peter and Nicky were attentive and friendly and we felt so welcomed. Our dog enjoyed the garden and she was safe and secure in the enclosed space. A place to return to and tell our friends about. Thank you both
