We love this house, our team has stayed there for a number of years now and it has always been immaculately clean and really well fitted out. There is a large and well-equipped kitchen, lots of space and multiple single beds which suits our needs. It is in a very quiet area and is really comfortable. The host has been very helpful and fast to respond.
