Fabulous property and great value for money. Just some minor points to make it better - add a chair to each bedroom and a towel hook beside each sink. A ladle for soup would be very useful. This property makes a wonderful base for a family holiday.

The house warm, clean and quiet. The view from the windows is lovely. The hot tub was very enjoyable. The welcome pack was much appreciated . We would not hesitate to recommend this house to others.
