We liked everything about our stay. There is nothing to add really. Jen's information on where to go to see seals was 10/10 as was all her kindness in organising a special birthday which really made our trip. All in all this is a special place to stay. Highly reccomended

We stayed in the cottage and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Although just for an short over night stay, but we enjoyed the use of the private hot tub, pictures scenery, comfy beds and a lovely breakfast. We'll definitely return for a longer stay.
