Location cannot be beaten and staff were very good. Eco-credentials did mean no air-conditioning (not great when visiting during a heatwave) and coffee was only International Roast. Washing up liquid and tea towel provided, but no plug for the sink?

Generally quite a nice resort. Location is nice, the property is showing signs of age. Staff were friendly and especially liked the wood fire and fresh wood supplied each night. A shame the local store has closed and no mobile coverage and no petrol. Great that resort advised prior to arrival.
