Confirmed Guest
Everything was really brilliant with the accommodation and generous gifts in fridge, it was a perfect getaway for my family, we loved it. Only negative was the booking system for the pool etc. the app didn’t work (3 of us tried), then we went over and signed in - we used the pool for 30 mins(it was empty), then we received an upsetting visit from a man stating he was from the board of directors saying we should not have used the pool? I tried to explain but he interrupted, was confrontational and I was shaken and upset, he then kept walking past our property and looking in ? Very strange person and not a nice experience at all.
