Had stunning time here

Was really good. Only issue was that 4th bedroom in the separate shed/bach was quite a distance from the main house and hence no internet there. Teenage girls were very keen to stay there but no internet there so no go. No one used it cos of the no internet.
Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2021
