This was our second stay at the Moonfleet and once again we absolutely loved it. The house is very comfortable, peaceful and beautifully maintained. The décor and overall style are very similar to our own home, which made it especially easy for us to relax and feel at home straight away.
The setting is lovely and quiet, with beautiful views, making it a perfect place to unwind. It is also great for hosting and spending time with friends in a relaxed environment. We would happily return again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and tranquil stay.
Excellent location. Beautiful views. Easy short walk to the harbour. Very spacious, comfortable and clean. Lovely garden. Very good value. Only two quibbles. Hot water tank barely capable of providing 5 showers in the morning. We were 6. Glad not 8. We cooked in the evenings. Lack of serving spoons
