Great Location to Relax

We have stayed here previously and loved it so much we came back. Short walk to the village for shopping, cafes and the pub. The house is dog friendly and so is the pub which is great for us.

Wonderful short stay

Stella Ann was a unique stay. It is a nostalgic cottage, very comfortable, clean and everything you need for your stay. A short walk to the shopping village which is very handy, a lovely verandah to sit and have a glass of wine in the afternoon. The garden is very pleasant to sit and have breakfast and listen to the birdson. Will come again.

Heather is a great host. She goes the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. The cottage is small but all you need for a stay in KV. Kitchen is well equipped and the bed is comfortable. The house is one of three up a driveway/lane but we found it. It's close to the shops etc

Good communication and instructions. House has a very strong musty smell. Needs to be fully decluttered. Update and invest in new linen and soft furnishings. Just too much of everything everywhere. The hoarding and wear and tear Takes away from the charming features

Excellent and relaxing getaway

Quant cottage style house. We loved the rustic interior. It's walking distance to the main strip, so you can easily walk to the shops, pub or go kayaking. The host is very friendly and attentive. Comes with a full kitchen and dishwasher! If you want a nice relaxing stay and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is the perfect retreat for the whole family.

Quirky property in convenient location

Great location for strolling to town, and we enjoyed relaxing on front verandah. Out door furniture at rear of property was pretty shabby and grounds were overgrown during our spring stay. Overlooked by house at the rear. Interior was comfortable but olde worlde. Everything we needed and dog friendly. Nice hosts.

Quaint Cottage

We had an enjoyable stay in this quaint cottage. Heather has put care and attention into getting the style of the numerous decorations and fit out to blend in. Stella Ann has a quiet garden and the planting at the back will soon screen off the back neighbour.
