Ages ranging from 5 - 65 with quite a few teenagers. The house was perfect for what we needed. Plently of room and commual areas for our large family, the living room was a great layout for playing family games. Large openplan kitchen dinner was brilliant, plently of bedrooms and the pool/sauna was fab! The house was spotless and its so much nicer than the photos. Communication with the host was brill. We have stayed at quite a few large houses and Crackin View is one of our favourites 10/10 Thank you! :) ##### Victoria R.
