Just awesome
Lovely property, so quite and beautiful. One thing, there isn't a microwave or toaster so if you're taking food, bear that in mind

New Years Stay
We've stayed in this absolute gem of a "mini castle" (as our kids call it) and will definitely stay again. Cute, cosy, well appointed, loads of character, near some beautiful walks, no neighbours but some horses..... what more could you want! Owners brought us up a set of scales to do some new years eve party baking within 20 minutes of calling them. 5 stars all the way.

Fabulous place
We had a lovely stay even though the weather was stormy. The folly is beautiful and had everything we needed. The host has put heating on for our arrival and also helped us to find it in the dark which was much appreciated. The views from the property are amazing. Seaview and horses outside. We felt really comfortable and cozy and we'll definitely be back.

Amazing property. We loved staying here and would happily book again. Very well placed for a beach-combing holiday. As described. Very clean. Good heating for a cold weather break.

Beautiful!
We absolutely loved our stay here, the house/folly was really lovely,clean and well equipped. I had read on another review the bedrooms had no curtains so we took some bin bags and popped them at the windows, would recommended doing this if you like to sleep in darkness! We would definitely be back and book again as our kids loved it and the horses! Thanks fkr a lovely stay 😀

Beautiful location, well appointed quirky property
The location was beautiful and the property comfortable and a good size. It was a shame that they were stingy with loo roll ( only 1 roll for a 3 night stay). Comments relating to the shower have been made over several years and it is not clear why the simple repair needed has not been carried out. The code for the gate was incorrect in the visitor info and we had to call them at 11pm. A dish drainer would have been useful.

2 night stay
This is a beautiful property which is extremely peaceful. The horses were a lovely bonus. The one thing that would have made it perfect was if you could get up to the top to really see the amazing views. We would definitely come back.
