Stephanie Hobday
Lovely spacious property, generally clean but could do with a little TLC. (Windows were filthy) Fantastic views.Our break was spoiled by inability to contact owners/manager prior to arrival, causing anxiety and infestation of wasps, causing us to leave early, discussed with manager who declined to help despite admitting he was aware that wasps were coming through the ceiling.Having said all of this the property was spacious and pleasant
Buick
lovely property, very friendly hosts. would reccomend 100%
