fun for kids
Extremely helpful and accommodating people. Plenty of activities for young kids outside. Very helpful. Stairs to upstairs rooms quite steep, so consider if you have mobility problems or very young children. Safety gate at top great and block at bottom allowed us to relax. Living area a little smaller than expected, very comfortable but would benefit from an extra chair for 3 adults to relax. Would return again.

Owners were helping family member move house but still found time to visit us and offer trampoline, outdoor lounging facility etc. We will certainly return, more than once too.
