The housekeeping team was so accomodating and just beautiful human beings. Following the death of a family member, the housekeeping team particularly Toni & Hayley made our stay much more accomodating and comfortable in a difficult situation. Thank you Caves - your staff are irreplaceable.

Great location and food... The room's location looked great. We only went to eat here, it was super busy but our order did come sooner than expected. Really beautiful location and vintage vibe. I definitely recommend it.

Great food at reasonable prices. Has a lovely atmosphere. There is a kids' play area. Lots of seating inside and out. In the cold weather, there are outside heaters. The only negative was that we could only book for a 2-hour window, and no one cleared our table. Unless they wait till your time is up to get ready for the next booking.

Great place to stay. The villa are nice and recent. The pub serve good food , has wifi, small playground for the kids. I just don't understand why the bungalows are only for adult ...there were times where I had to go elsewhere as the bungalow were the only left place. It would have been perfect with my son...
