This was a great location, clean, well equipped, and plenty of space for us all. 2 minute walk to the Lake, lots of places to sit and take in the view.My only gripe is I think the rubbish removal could be included in the price, and some coffee pods provided for the machine.Other than that a lovely place to stay. ##### shelley h.
