House spacious and had lovely views. We liked the kitchen and facilities and the upstairs living room. On the negative side we were unhappy that we could not open the downstairs bedroom windows. The upstairs bathroom had a clump of hair over the drain on first look so disconcerting. Overall not too bad and a good holiday place. ##### Robyn F. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shirley L. 14 Oct 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Weekend away Great property, clean and well kept.
