Excellent property. Well equipped and high standard of cleanliness. Furnished and decorated to an excellent standard. Lovely garden and communal space. The games room was a real hit with everyone but especially the children. Perfect house for a large family get together. We have been doing that for a number of years and this is the best property we have booked in terms of space and facilities.
