Sadly the pool isn't any good, has a hole, if we knew we would have booked somewhere else on a 30deg weekend. The shower leaked all over the bathroom floor But the rest of the property and stay was excellent, clean, lovely kept garden, sadly a dirty bbq which we didn't want to clean before use, not owners fault
