What can we say that has not been included already, we stayed in the Lovers Hideaway which was much nicer in reality than the photo's depict. An overall positive experience and a brilliant Christmas present to each other, including respite for the soul after a busy and hectic period of time leading up to Christmas. We really enjoyed our break... More

We stayed in the Old Romantics cottage on our first night, which was lovely. It was a joy to have the log fire and a four poster bed, not to mention the jacuzzi bath and the hot tub! Truly a special experience to sit in the hot tub in the middle of the night under the stars. I really loved... More

We arrived at 'The Lovers' hideaway, frazzled and really needing our Christmas break. My review really ought to begin several weeks prior to arrival, with thoughtful, light hearted contacts from Caroline, the property owner, who offered the chance to arrange food, massages etc for us on arrival. This was all very welcome and made us feel extremely positive about our... More

Title says it all! We spent 4 nights at the Honeymooners Hideaway after our wedding. After the stress and excitement of the build up to the big day, this was the perfect antidote. Relaxing, luxurious and romantic. If you don't enjoy yourself here, you were there with the wrong person. More

I stayed with my partner for a mid week getaway and had such a lovely relaxing time we just didn't want to leave. Caroline and her son Finlay greeted us on arrival with a lovely homemade loaf of bread. The welcome we received and accomodation far surpassed our expectations. We were surrounded by great views and especially enjoyed sitting in... More

After making ourselves at home and sitting down to our first romantic dinner in the hideaway we were interrupted by the owner and her son who... More
