Lovely comfortable apartment in renovated Georgian house overlooking golf course. The owner, Adrian, was most welcoming and nothing seemed too much trouble for him. He was also a great source of information about nearby attractions. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend Rock House to anyone.
