Having read the description and previous reviews for this property, I had high expectations and it exceeded every one of them. There is nothing I can fault. The hosts are very welcoming. The property is exceptionally well equipped. There was a lovely welcome pack and thoughtful extras throughout the house. We were an adult family of 6 (3 couples) with a pooch. There was plenty of room for us all to sit comfortably, eat inside or out and park our 3 cars. The property is dog friendly with more than enough room for our dog and her crate. A bonus in the heatwave we were having is the upside down layout provided cooler sleeping. Thank you Paul & Kay.
