Our group of two families had a relaxing and fun time at Emma's place. The kids enjoyed the trampoline and the kids living area. Emma's place had all we needed for our summer stay. Thanks for hosting us.
Beautiful house, great area. Very quiet. Ease of checkin. As it accomodates 8, more outdoor seating would be good. Small amount of maintenance would have made it perfect, e.g. screen door repair, rubbish left in inside bin, cutlery dirty, clean windows and remove spider webs. Had a great catchup with family. Thank youand spider webs.

As it’s a new house , the builders were yet to replace the screen door which was installed faulty . Being in the country , the cobwebs are a constant battle . We try to keep on top of it but sometimes between guests , we don’t have the luxury of additional time for windows and webs as cleanliness is prioritised
