We stayed here while attending a wedding nearby. It was quite a while ago, but amazingly, it was so miserable that I still remember the experience.

Views from our room was stunning. If you are in need of a complete break away from the rat race, this is the place to stay. On arrival we were offered tea,... More

Fantastic hosts, well placed and very comfortable and charming room. We stayed in the Coach House room which had it's own entrance, not the best view but partial view of sea and big room with sofa area.

Location is perfect for a much needed relaxing break. View from our bedroom was absolutely stunning, as was the view from our bathroom and the dining room! Jane and John... More

We are Canadians so we knew those origins. This parlour was for the guests... More
