The house is beautiful and exceptionally well equipped. It is a lot bigger than expected and the ensuite bathroom is huge and again well built. Even with very loud Karaoke going on in the livingroom, you couldnt hear a sound in the bedroom. The water heating and pressure is excellent for the location as well. Hosts were extremely friendly and even ensured to dig out the snow so we wouldnt be stuck with our cars. Overall it was a wonderful stay.

Overall a good stay
As quite a large family we book these kind of getaways regularly, i think the house would really benefit from having at least one twin room. The 5 bedrooms in the house all have double beds which is not so good if people dont necessarily want to share a bed with their siblings or parents. We also have a 8 month old and before we left i did try to find out the size of the cot so we could bring suitable bedding or a travel cot but the hosts knowledge of the cot wasn't very helpful so we just brought both. Not a massive deal but also the televisions in the property are either quite old or mounted too bigh my grandfather couldn't see the tv in the livingroom very well which also seemed to be knackered in my opinion with a heavy blue tint. Overall apart from pepole not getting a very good sleep the house was very nice and all other important things were thare.
