Once we had negotiated the way to the back of the house to park our cars it went perfectly after that. The house had everything we needed and was very welcoming for us and our dog. The big garden suited him and the house was clean and welcoming. All the rooms were set up for our comfort and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to other families.
