We loved the seclusion and the peace that went with it. The house in the location has got the wow factor. Very comfortable property and well equipped. The essentials that were left for us were a really nice touch. Thank you for the bubbly in the fridge to celebrate our wedding, that was really kind and unexpected.
The spiral stairs could be a bit tricky carrying luggage to and from the master bedroom. A real fire/log burner would be a nice addition.

The house was as beautiful and well kept as the pictures on the website and the setting was stunning and tranquil. We loved the personal touches, such the arrival package of bread, jam, coffee, tea and sugar on arrival and the home made muffins were absolutely delicious! The system for booking was simple and queries were dealt with quickly and efficiently.
The TV could do with updating (no hdmi connection).

We have stayed in the boat house for the last 5 years. It is the most special place to spend a week or so of your life in. It's very well equipped, beautifully clean and perfectly situated if you want to 'be on your own' for total peace and quiet. It's a few minutes drive to the local village where you can get just about everything you may need. The boat house is an tiny haven of tranquility.
