An overall great holiday experience for grandparents, daughter and grandchildren aged 6 and 14. Something for everyone within the closest proximity to the accommodation. All very comfortable and with use of dishwasher and washing machine to cover the home cooking stay and water sports activities. Perfect weather a bonus.
