Nice Place to Relax

A lovely house and location, great to have two separate living spaces, particularly for families to enable space for everyone to relax in their own way. A really lovely quiet spot, great views and a lovely sun trap during periods of the day. Very family friendly house for young families. Would happily stay again.
