"The eight of us had a lovely couple of nights here."
There is sufficient shared space to not be on top of each other and the bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable and clean. Kitchen had all the necessary pots and pans although could maybe do with a frying pan as I like fried egg for breakfast..
Thanks for the great review Darren - great to hear you enjoyed your stay and were happy with the house - apologies the frying pan is under the oven in a pan drawer ! Property Owner
