    Wow, thats really all I need to say about this, it’s spacious, well presented and very comfy. We really needed something the was different and fit the bill. As we had 2 dogs properly closed in garden.The G/F floor bedroom was perfect for my 90 year old mother, its a shame the g/f bathroom wasn’t on-suite but you cant have everything. We used the BBQ facilities a few times, ample coals and starters were included, the BBQ was clean and tidy Upstairs bedrooms, there was one larger super king, a large and 2 singles offering plenty of sleeping capacity.The kitchen is massive with a large island with an extractor fan pulling fumes down into the base. 2 ovens one with a combined microwave, a nice chiller for wine or drinks, a large fridge and separate freezer. There is also a dish washer too. Plenty of storage. The sink had a quooker tooThe hot tub was great too and this was checked daily by the property manager to ensure the water was perfect.A great holiday was had by all
