Comfortable home away from home
Very clean, comfortable and well appointed family home. Plenty of space for the 4 adults in our party. Could have used another bath mat and a set of oven gloves, otherwise it had everything we needed.

Beautiful home and was perfect for family Xmas
Really enjoyed the house, location and atmosphere for a family Xmas. Well equipped and easy for entertaining. Only things I would fault were outdoor furniture was very old and needed some maintenance so we didn’t use, particularly in Xmas outfits! And there was a rather hazardous step between living area and kitchen/dining which my elderly parents found quite challenging and I fell down myself. Host communication and service excellent
