The perfect family getaway
The property was exactly what we hoped it would be; spacious, comfortable and clean with a lovely fenced area for our dogs to enjoy. The location was great, the check in process was efficient and easy and we were even offered a generous late check out. Overall a fantastic value for money and we are highly likely to return.
