Fabulous property. We were 4 adults and 2 children. The place is so big there was plenty of room for everyone. Lovely big garden with bbq and seating. The pool is such a bonus. Only a short drive to a fantastic beach. It really is the perfect place for a family holiday.

A charming house in a beautiful setting, we loved it from the moment we walked through the door and the pool was an added bonus enjoyed by everyone especially my Granddaughters. The little extras left by the owners were appreciated and when a small problem arose they quickly dealt with it. Look forward to returning.
