Very well equipped and very comfortable. Great to be able to take our 3 dogs. Fantastic welcome package. Good communication with owner. Accuracy of listing, one small point, was looking forward to the swing seat in garden but it wasn't there! But overall it is great and we will defintiely return one day. Thank you Lynne.
