Great house

Lovely house right on the beach. Only issues were that pool was very cold, and the house was only 13 degrees Celsius when we arrived (it was 1degree celsius outside). We had to turn on all the radiators individually and the house took all evening/into the night to heat up. So unfortunately we were all cold on the first night. It would have been lovely to arrive to a warm, cosy house particularly as the weather was so bad (Storm Bert weekend). Plenty of household items such as plates/glasses/towels.
