Great family base close to everything

We had a smooth check in process the house was warm and inviting when we arrived. Everywhere was clean and tidy, there was fresh linen and towels for everyone. The kitchen stocked with all the basics and a few extra touches to make us feel at home and very comfortable. Great location close to the high street across the road from the lake which is a great walk. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay
