Excellent property, great location and ideal for our needs.
As seems to be the usual case there are insufficient comfy seats for the number of guests the property can accommodate. Fortunately there were only 6 of us and we struggled to fit comfortably on the sofa. Not sure where the other 2 guests could have sat.
We had to ask for wine glasses and saucepans, which was a little disappointing as this should gave been checked before our arrival. They were provided very promptly the following day.
