Fabulous stay
The only reason for 4 star on cleanliness was the lack of a clean before we arrived. We spoke to the office who were very apologetic and swiftly arranged a full excellent clean within the hour. Staff were excellent. Pool was great and amenities and location perfect. We will be back

Perfect Location
It was our 7th stay at Cedars. We stayed for 2 weeks in January 2016.
We`ve noticed improved efforts by house cleaning. Everything appeared tidy and clean.
Overall the staff was very friendly and cooperative.
The house was nicely furnished.
The location on LBK still is one of the best!
We will be back.
