Great barn conversion, very thoughtfully done. Well equipped and spotlessly clean. Has everything you'd need. Enjoyed our stay there.

Good points. Quiet location,very clean, nice bowl of fruit. Bad points. Shower leaked from tray(mentioned in visitor book in 2019). Central heating switched off so couldn't dry towels on radiator. TV only worked on BBC1 and 2, all other channels severely broken signal. No local information I.e. Local shops pubs, petrol station, emergency and doctorRead mores information, never known any where else. Living area/ kitchen dark and dreary, needed lights on all time. Aspect appalling, no country views Hide

Lovely converted cottage, exactly as appears on the website, everything you might need in place, good central location to explore the island but is on farmland down a bumpy lane, you definitely need a car.

Had a brilliant two week stay at the Shiloh Cottage. Cottage was spotless when we arrived, we had fruit, milk, tea and coffee left for us on arrival which was fantastic as meant could have a cuppa as soon as we got there. The cottage was in a fantastic central location you can easily reach most tourist attractions, beaches etc within 15/20mins. DidRead more have to run the hot water for about 10 mins before it came through but otherwise was perfect. Anyone staying there will have a comfortable stay. :-) Hide
