  • "Fantastic week in Charlestown we all really enjoyed it."

    Location of the smokehouse is excellent and all restaurants are on your doorstep. It was lovely to get up in the morning and look straight out of the window to the tall ships and the harbour an amazing location. It was a great base to explore from. The smokehouse was extremely clean and very comfortable, with the little details that were left by the owners adding to a fantastic stay. The communication from the owner was superb before we arrived which just added to the whole experience. Thank you for a really lovely holiday, we hope to return soon!
