This delightful property actually exceeded our expectations! We were so surprised by the beautiful garden, even though we had seen pictures of it when we booked. Berrynarbor is a lovely village, and our hosts were so friendly and helpful when we needed it. A very special holiday and such a great property....

The cottage is very nice and well equipped. It is also very comfortable and ideal for two people. The garden is lovely. Our weather was very good that week (April] and we especially enjoyed sitting in the garden enjoying the sun late afternoon. We would book again. ...
