Just wished we had stayed longer...fantastic house . Very well equipped with everything you need. The house was spotless on arrival. We only booked a few days before.
The bed was so comfy..
Dogs were made so welcome with towels and bowls. They loved the dog chew that was left for our furry friends.
Beautiful setting... loved our walks round the Monastery inside and out.
Unfortunately the pool was closed due to coved.. Certainly didn’t affect our stay.

Cottage
We loved this cottage, everytime we come it takes our breath away with the scenery and surroundings, and of course the beautiful cottage which is immaculate. So much culture and wildlife in the surrounding areas. Perfect for relaxing and a break away. Cant wait to bring the grandkids back.
