House was spacious with good kitchen and bathrooms. The thing our children missed most was Wifi! Tourist tips we received from owner were very helpfull. Garden was nice, chairs not the most comfortable. House overall could do with a bit more coziness (rugs, tables etc)

There might have been 6 people staying two weeks. Not very welcoming. 2. The carbon monoxide detector went off late one night. We thought it was the smoke detector making the noise and it took us quite a time to locate the problem. We contacted the owner who did not get our calls as it was late and she had gone to bed. Thankfully it was just a battery problems and we removed the batteries and replaced with new one next day. After speaking to the owner we were assured the boiler had been serviced in August but the sticker on the boiler said it had not been done. I realise this is a 'one off' problem but at the time, it was worrying. 3. Apart from the above, we had a good holiday in a lovely holiday home.
