The house was fantastic, the kids and grandchildren had a great time. Coppermines saved the weekend for us as the other house (with a different agency) had been double booked. Thank you!

Please do pass our sincerest thank you to the owners for letting us stay in their beautiful house. We wanted to book the perfect place to celebrate our adventurous son's 21st birthday and we found it at Tanglewood! Everything was to a high standard and we couldn't have asked for anything more. His 21st will be so memorable and we hope to come again!
