Really enjoyed the hot tub. The single beds not really suitable for adults, so I slept on bed-settee. Some local tourist information wouldâve been useful. There were only 3 dinner plates Great value for money, thank you

There was enough to keep the children occupied although some were a bit of a drive. Emma the owner was great at letting us know what was going on during an area power cut on the first night and topped up the hot tub without having to be asked half way through the week. The guy in charge of the Ski School Greg was very helpful and accommodating to fit in my girls for a fast tow on an inflatable which they loved. Shame they donât do other watersports there as it would be perfect. All in all a good place to stay !
