“I found the house to be a wonderfully comfortable base for exploring the island, its spacious rooms and enclosed garden a real plus, especially with the convenience of nearby shops and an exceptional seafood restaurant just a stone's throw away. The warmth of the log fire combined with the reliable gas central heating meant it was always a welcoming retreat after a day out. It's clear a lot of thought has gone into making it a well-equipped and relaxing place to stay.”
