A bit tricky in the beginning with the TV as the WiFi plays up. We had trouble using the oven so much so we had to order in pizza the first night and get a friend to get it going and even she had a problem. It would help considerably if clear instructions in the house book were provided. Other than that showers were good and it was a nice quiet area, although I think one towel per guest is a bit tight. Kids could get out on their roller skates and scooters. ##### jane m.
