Our holiday at Little Pear Tree Barn was excellent! All the good reviews for this fantastic holiday home are accurate, I don't think I can add much. The owners are friendly and helpful, right next door if you need them. We would definitely return as there are many locations we didn't get to see in one week.

A good property in a very remote location, great for getting away from it all. Full amenities and a comfortable bedroom. Typical narrow lanes to get to and from the property. Check the tide tables as the near by beach disappears at a spring tide.
