Lovely property - excellent location, great value
The property was as described. It was very clean and had loads of space. Superb views from first floor to Knock Castle and the beach. Great location for both the ferry and the bridge. Beds were very comfy and the house felt cosy when we had to hunker down against the wind and rain. Kitchen was well kitted out with plenty of mugs, glasses and crockery.
