Fantastic place to stay
My only fault is that we werent told that we couldnt drink the water before we arrived. Thankfully we always take water with us, so we were prepared. But for others that may have been an issue. But it was lovely and clean, hosts lovely and friendly. Sophie was a huge hit with my children and loved waking and opening the door to find her laying enjoying the sun. We will be back for sure.
