Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The property lives up to the photographs and is extremely well equipped with all items such as kitchen equipment bring in as new condition . Beds are comfortable if slightly soft for some of our family . The pool is large and kept nicely warm and the kids spent hours in there . The village pub is worth a visit but book if you wish to eat there as space is limited .
