Positive: Drakes mead was everything we wanted and more, it exceeded our expectations. The kitchen was well equipped for such a quaint accommodation. We loved the fire pit and the fact we had everything to light it on the first night. We were really surprised with the milk and biscuits considering we were only staying for 2 nights The accommodation had total privacy and country views. We loved the fact we didn’t have WiFi as we enjoyed listening to the football on the radio. Would definitely book again.

Negative: That we didn’t stay longer

Summary: Amazing and will be back

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Very comfortable cabin, with a great layout and everything needed in the kitchen for a short stay. The sofa was comfy, as was the bed. Great location for exploring the coast! We were well rested and the owners lovely people.

Negative: This isn’t criticism, however I think more could be made of the outdoors seating area, with some chairs to go by the fire pit and to open up that fabulous view that is there behind the brambles. It’s balance of privacy and views though. As others have said a hairdryer would have been useful. WiFi would be good as Vodafone signal is patchy at best and only worked outside really.

Summary: Great location to explore

Positive: Shepherds hut with a modern touch. Has everything you need. Lovely and clean, hot shower and a cosy bed. Ideal for unwinding and to relax. Hosts kept in touch to see if there was anything you needed.

Negative: This is not a dislike just our preference, that it would have been nice to see more of the countryside and view, and maybe a couple of chairs to sit around the fire pit.

Summary: Perfect, just what we needed.
