This property suited our needs as a large family with facilities that suited ages 7 to 60 ish. The house was very spacious and it was a very comfortable stay. The host was very generous in their provision for us and extremely responsive and helpful with their communication. This is the best accommodation our family has stayed in.

Stunning property

This property is absolutely stunning and beautifully styled, equipped with everything we needed. It can easily accommodate several groups, and the spacious, comfortable bedrooms were definitely a highlight. The kids loved the pool! The host was fantastic to communicate with before our stay and even left us a lovely welcoming gift. Highly recommend.
