Top marks for spotlessly clean throughout and very comfy beds, and our kids loved the playground and animals on site. The owners advised there is a mosquito problem but the property is incredibly hot: consider providing fans in all rooms. There also wasnt a hairdryer provided which was a surprise. Travelling with a dog it was a shame there werent aRead moreny walks on foot we could do beyond the property (which was off a very busy road), but it is a good location to get to many tourist spots by car Hide
