"Overall experience was great, we wanted a low key quiet relaxing holiday with plenty of wood and beach walks. The accomodation was fantastic, the people who owned the facility were the people who met us and they were on site daily in the coffee lounge downstairs, this was a real benefit as we were able to pick their brains. We enjoyed the view very much. We all enjoyed the nintendo wii! " Mr Tellwright, May 2010
