Alex

We had an amazing stay here! The kids absolutely loved the secure play area and enjoyed the hot tub, while we appreciated the peace of mind knowing they were safe. The games room was a hit tooand they couldn't get enough of cuddling the ducks. We did have a bit of trouble with the room temperature and hot tub, but the owner was very helpful and sorted everything quickly. All in all, a fantastic place we definitely want to visit again!

Alex Turner

Great spot with friendly hosts and a prime location.

Emma

We've rented houses for our team every year for ages, but this one tops them all. The place was spotless and really spacious, perfect for our big group to hang out and do some fun stuff. The hosts and staff were super friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Honestly, we had a fantastic time and can't wait to come back next year. Definitely a place we'll keep coming to!

James

We had a fantastic stay with our big family group of 21. The owners were super helpful whenever we needed a hand. The kids loved the hot tubs and the games room, which kept them busy for hours. The communal spaces were really cosy and thoughtfully designed. The basement nightclub was a real highlight! The rooms were spacious, well-equippedand comfortable. Honestly, we'd definitely recommend this place for a family holiday - we made some brilliant memories there!
