Accurately described. Loved all the special touches especially dog bed, bags, torches and even spare batteries. Amazing space. Almost everything you could wish for and more. If I could have added to it would maybe have renovated with a second separate toilet in mind. We had two small dogs and hose outside was useful for muddy paws but a mop and large handled broom would have helped with wet feet and leaves
