We loved our stay at this place. Lovely house, three large bedrooms, great shower room and an extra separate toilet on the first floor, plus a loo on the ground floor, great for my elderly mum so she wasn’t up and down the stairs for the bathroom. The house is ideally dusted in the heat of the town with free parking right outside or at a car park 2 mins down the road. We had everything we needed provided and the host was easily contactable. Thank you so much, we’ll be back.
améliorations à envisager: manque de vaisselle:( plats, un seul couteau qui coupe, pas de tire bouchon ni d'essoreuse et couverts à salade). Pas de rallonge(30cm de fil seulement) pour l'aspirateur qui aspire.(karcher). L'exterieur demanderait un peu plus d'entretien. Merci pour la table de ping pong.
