"The Oar and Paddle is a great place to stay. So quiet and peaceful and the views are amazing. We stayed in Suite 1 and could quite happily sat in bed all day looking at the view! The accommodation is top notch and everything is finished to a high standard. David and Sue were lovely hosts and I'm sure we'll be back again. Would happily recommend to anyone."
