    This however was soon displaced .We found the accomodation to be clean ,comfortable and well equipped (.ok some of the paintwork was marked but only what we would have expected in holiday accomodation ) Our party consisted of 11 with ages from 2 years old all the way to 71 years old and everyone enjoyed the weekend especially the pool and gym The only problem we had was being unable to find the recycling bins and having to take the recycling home.

    Couldn’t wish for a better place to stay for a Family get together. Didn’t need to venture outside

  • Stephanie

    Broken furniture, blinds, pool not heated, house dirty. The house is in a poor state of repair. We have been informed the owner is knocking the house down in the near future so will not undertake any repairs or replace anything that is broken. Boiler broke when we were there, when the engineer came we were informed this was a regular occurrence. Do not stay here.
