“I have been at Willow a few times now and it never disappoints. Always clean and tidy when arriving. Great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. Plenty of nature to watch. Great sunsets and sunrises to see. As a fisherman it’s nice to just sit at the end of the garden and fish. The young lady Corrie from Riverside Holidays was outstanding! So helpful and a pleasure to talk to.”
