  • "House was fabulous."

    Delighted with everything

  • "We had a great time."

    However there were 9 of us and there weren't enough seats in the living room for everyone to sit together in the evenings. It would have been good to have another 3 seat sittee and the room would have space for it. Also the mattress in the far bedroom on its own was very uncomfortable. Everything else was brilliant and we had a lovely surprise with the crisps and Prosecco left to welcome us.
