Wonderful home
We stayed over Christmas for a few days and thoroughly enjoyed our stay (Family of 8). Communication before we arrived was great. The home is well furnished and spacious. It’s clean and all the rooms are very generous sized and well laid out. Whilst phone reception is hit or miss the Wi-Fi can’t be faulted and was good in all rooms. I have no hesitation in rating this properly as 5 stars and would totally recommend. We will definitely be looking to come back again.
