Linkshouse is gorgeous with comfortable and clean bedrooms, a den and a glassed in porch to relax. The food was perfect and made to order. The owner was interested in our travel plans.

We were travelling with our children (5 and 7) and had booked mostly family rooms across the country. But when we saw this lovely B&B, we wanted to stay there, even if it didn't have a family room.

The tiny village used to be the capital, has an old church, a ruined palace, and an island with an iron age settlement which is reached on foot by causeway at low tide.
