The property was fantastic - had everything you need with a lovely tranquil setting and amazing views! The communication with the owner was good too - very helpful and attentive, and like how they helped with the hot tub!The site is also great with activities to do and brilliant facilities - the pool is brilliant, I just wish we’d had better weather! The staff are all so very friendly and service is excellent! Great holiday!
