Very clean and pleasant, highly recommend

The property is very well equipped and looked after. It was very clean and everything had been thought of and provided. There was food and drink to welcome us which was very generous and much appreciated. We hope to stay again in the future. There is an enclosed rear and front to the property which was good for our dog. There is quite a high drop in the rear garden so I kept our dog on his lead as a precaution. All in all, highly recommended. Many thanks
