Furzeburrow is a very unique property. It is non traditional construction a type of pre fab. The interior decoration and furniture and fittings are partially built into the property so would cause problems if any modernisation took place. So with this in mind it helps to understand the property.The size of all the rooms is surprising a bit tardis like. The beds are comfy and everything you need is there.The following 2 items could be looked into but did not spoil our holiday. Some of the kitchen bits ie pans need updating and the sitting room curtains need repairs or replacement.Our week there saw us experience heavy rain and stormy winds but the house remained warm and cozy. The view is the best I can remember
