Reviews

We really enjoyed our stay at Puddleducks. The hosts are superb, really helpful and informative but not intrusive. We were made to feel very welcome and enjoyed Puddleducks immensely. It’s clean and well equipped and the beautiful location makes it a really great base to visit the wealth of local attractions. We stayed there with our five year old daughter and two dogs who were also made to feel very welcome.
