Jo-ann
The house is perfect for a large family holiday. Plenty of space to be together and also have some quiet time. The snug was ideal for younger ones to use their games consoles without taking over the main lounge area. The pool was big enough for exercise and exceeded our expectations. The house was spotless and everything was to a very high standardRead more. Even though we had ice and snow for most of the week the heating was set to keep the house perfectly warm. A wonderful holiday. Thank you! Hide
