Away from the chaos, but easy access to town amd activites. Large place, with comfortable beds and large family living area. Only 1 toilet downstairs was challenging at times with our family of 6.
Positives - good location with nice views
Negatives- bathroom - shower cubicle edges were grimey and the toilet was not great. Had a flush that sprayed water everywhere which i thought was unhygenic. .
