Very disappointed to find out on e,-mail after payment there was no designated parking space meaning we couldn't park outside to unload our luggage and there was not much parking on the main road as most of it was taken up by residents or other holidaymakers which spoilt our break from the first day.I think this should be looked into because when you are paying so much money somewhere to park is very important for your holiday
