Beautiful Home with Stunning Views – Great for Families

We recently stayed here with three families, all with young children, and had a fantastic time. The home was warm and cosy for our winter stay, beautifully maintained, and perfectly laid out for a larger group. Stunning views, a great location, and everything we needed was right at hand. Communication was quick and easy throughout.We’d absolutely stay again and highly recommend it to others.Just a note for families with little ones. there are stairs, including a ladder-style staircase to the mezzanine. Our kids managed it fine, but something to be aware of depending on your family.
