William was a welcoming host who was there on arrival and to say goodbye. William rang ahead of our stay to check who was staying and was happy to have our 3 year old German shepherd stay too. The property was clean, cosy and warm even with gusty winds and rain. Will definitely be returning soon! Thank you for a lovely stay ☺️

Clean and modern apartment

Spotlessly clean, spacious and modern apartment in the grounds of the owner's gated house, although still very private. Modern appliances. Great communication from owner.

Perfect little place to visit and switch off. Sat outside with a cuppa at 8am on a Saturday morning with only the sun and the burd song for company was bliss. Recommendation of The Green Man pub for an evening meal was well received as the food was amazing with large portions of locally caught fish. This little gem of a place may seem like its in the midfdle of nowhere, but sometimes, that's just what you need in life!

The Wow Syed.

We spent a lovely weekend at the Cow Shed, an immaculate property, pet friendly, great communication and a rural location a stone’s through from the coast and a nature reserve.
