This property was a perfect getaway. The views from within and on the balcony were just beautiful. We had glorious weather so that made it even better. The area was walkable to a number of local walks and it was 1km from the village. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and if I returned I would try and stay here again. Thank you for such a lovely break

One of my favourite places that I’ve stayed - floor to ceiling windows overlooking the lake with huge sliding doors . Beautiful tree outside that makes you feel like you’re almost in a tree house with all mod cons . Comfortable and spacious with everything you need . Had beautiful views of the night sky on our first night . Just beautiful

A residential home that has been split into two apartments to stay in; we stayed on the bottom level. The owner was really helpful about getting us set up and helping us to check in early, I loved the surrounding area. Lots of nice homely touches like multiple heaters around the home, electric blankets on the bed.

We stayed in the seaview room. Nice place opposite the water. The apartment is spacious for 2. The queen bed was comfortable but would have preferred a king. All amenities, utensils, cutlery, crockery for cooking were included. There were also some board games, dvds and hifi which made good use when it was raining. There was no cable tv only regular tv channels. Information about the place and things to do was also in the compendium. Mary the host was friendly and made us feel welcome. I would definitely stay a few nights again.
