Response from the owner
Hi Kerry thank you for the great review and glad you enjoyed The Boathouse and its stunning location and views. We will definately look into the sofa again, This has proved very difficult as we have changed it three times in as many years and thought that at last we had got it right. There must be a sofa somewhere that everyrone likes...just got to find it! thanks again for the great review, and hopefully see you in the future and bring the hot sunny weather with you please :)
