The house is really lovely and quite huge. The kitchen was well equipped with lots of crockery and utensils. There were lots of sitting areas and the dining area was really good with beautiful views. The games room was a bit hit with our four grandchildren and they also enjoyed playing in the park area.

This really is an amazing holiday home. The owners have put so much love into it and you feel it as soon as you arrive. Our grandchildren enjoyed the games room and we spent many happy family evenings in there. We have stayed in many holiday homes and I have to say that the kitchen is extremely well stocked.
