THINGS TO NOTE

We all enjoyed our stay, beautiful property with excellent facilities, close to a village.
However there was a downside, broken glass was in the pool, three of our party, including two children sustained cuts from this, resulting in bleeding. Fortunately one of iur party was a nurse.

Great weekend!!
Few of the rooms smell musty and damp, not the cleanest of houses, the kitchen needs a deep clean, cooker and extracter fan was caked in grease. numerous toilet seats broken, little things around the house need fixing or replacing. On the up side, the house is fab, big and spacious, pleanty of room for everyone. The pool area is amazing, the kids loved it ( more so the adults) kept everyone entertained for the whole weekend. Definately visit again. And have already recommended to friends.
