The potential for this venue is sorely neglected
Dull, dark, dusty.
Filthy windows, rusty fridge, cobwebs everywhere.
No promised washing machine.
No promised garden.
Outdoor toys dirty and rotten.
No table to sit at in the kitchen.
Chairs old and ragged with ill fitting cushions.

Property was perfect size for 10 people no squeezing in, and plenty of room. The pig, sheep and horses were a hit with kids would recommend for a large get together.
