“An excellent property, which is spacious, light, well equipped with quality items for twelve people, and clean.”
There are plenty of areas for spreading out, but also the dining room and lounge areas can accommodate everyone together. The large private garden has sun and shade, and has enough furniture for seating twelve. The chalet is an added bonus as a chill out area.
Generally everything was in good order.
The house is homely , but there is not the sense of impinging on the home of another family.
There are security gates and adequate parking for a large group .
Communication was good and clear entry instructions. The village has two pubs in which to eat, a post office shop and garage. The beach is a ten minute walk away.
A wonderful house for a large group of people.
