"From the outside it looks small. But step inside and it opens up like a tardis. High vaulted ceilings and lots of floor space upstairs on which our children could lay out your toy railway and ideal from the privacy angle for two couples holidaying together. We loved it!" Just one comment plucked from our Visitors' Book telling such wonderful stories.
