A lovely cottage - very suitable for families with dogs. Good garden area and excellent pool. Great temperature despite outside temperature a bit low at times. Kids loved it. Great location with plenty to do all within about half an hour. Would definitely book again.

Grounds and gardens were gorgeous and really well maintained. Gardeners cottage needs to be updated and deep cleaned. Stairs are very steep. When you turn off the lights the dark and quietness of the area were very relaxing. Pool was lovely and warm.
