A Girl's Trip away to enjoy House & Garden Tour
The property was ideal for us - spacious, clean & good outdoor areas. Unfortunately the access was not straight forward which put a damper on our experience
We loved this large modern home. Older and younger folk could be separated in own bedrooms, bathrooms and living. Great indoor outdoor flow. Plenty of living space. Had great amenities. Highly recommend.
