The stay was perfect, the house itself isn’t in walking distance of any shops however it is only a 10 minute drive to ASDA. It has everything you could want, including an outdoor sauna, and jacuzzi. Only downside is there is no locks on any of the bathrooms. Tried to arrange late checkout a few times, weeks before the trip however host did not respond.
