First holiday with our 10 month old springer pup and he had the best time ever!! So did we!! The idea of our holiday was to get some peace, quiet and rest and we certainly did that! There is plenty of places to go visit, eat and see! We will definitely be back! If i had to choose a negative, it would be the 9am check out far to relaxed to be up that early!! Lol
