We had a fantastic time. The property was lovely and we so enjoyed sitting outside on the comfortable furniture with the sound of the lake. The lakeside bar was lively and fun. Everything one needed was provided in the property.

Thoughtful touches eg dishwasher tablets provided and coffee machine with coffee capsules.. well located for eateries and good dog walks. The location is great, with a lovely sunny balcony complete with BBQ. I would have given a higher score but the house is tired in places. As we were a group of 4 the 4ft wide double beds were not an issue for us.Read more Hide

The Lake house is a wonderful place to stay, it has a lovely ambiance inside and out. Being an end house and sitting over the lake it`s the perfect spot to chill out and enjoy the variety of birds. We would be very happy to return. We were welcomed with coffee and a bottle of wine.

Extremely disappointed and not worth the money. Inside the property is better but overall there were too many small things which lead us to feel it really isn't worth the money including stained carpet in the bedroom,' Bits' in the crockery, half a toilet roll in a bathroom, luke warm 'hot' water.
