Nice house in a beautiful village.
Nice house in a beautiful village. We felt very welcome and the house had everything we needed. There are no shops in Puncknowle but there is a good pub and kids park. Will recommend to friends and family.
We were 4 adults with 2 children and a dog and there was plenty of space.
