Fantastic base to travel around from. This house had everything you could possibly think of for your stay, all mod con's, there even was a wide selection of books and DVDs, a real home from home with all the little extras youâd never think off. Our little dog also really enjoyed his stay too as itâs pet friendly, super bonus. We will return next year more than once for sure.
