Spotless bungalow, very comfortable, warm and cosy with everything we could possibly have needed. Lots of throws, cushions, extra pillows, lovely soft towels and even bathrobes were provided. The very generous welcome pack even included a lovely doggy treat bag, such a lovely and much appreciated touch. Excellent communication from start to finish. We will definitely be back and have no hesitation to recommend this lovely, welcoming bungalow. Thank you for a super stay.

As soon as we walked into Arkle House we were impressed. The bunaglow was immaculate, and exactly as described. The welcome basket was a lovely treat, and the garden was perfect for us. Amble is a beautiful area, and buses are regular.We had much longer journey (from Kent) than we realised, but is was more than worth it!
