Good accomodation. We booked this house for a family wedding. Great for couples to have their own bathroom and plenty of space with multiple lounges. Nice comfy couches with a good sized kitchen and dining. Only advice would be not great for those with mobility issues as quite a few stairs. Also driveway can be tricky if you have a lower! Best to rent an suv!

House is nice and spacious, lots of bathrooms and good sized rooms. Views are magnificent and the spa is a treat. However, we visited in May and the house was freezing! Only plug in wall heaters (some of which didn't even work). Only 2 bathrooms had decent running hot water, the other 2 showers water dribbled out - not good enough! Oone bedroom is only accessible externally which was never mentioned. Doors, TV's, cupboards not functioning properly. No soaps, bodywash etc. Pretty disappointing for the amount of money we paid.
