Lovely house
Perfect location. Amenities great, though perhaps a tin opener would help in the kitchen. The house was clean and tidy with the exception of the rug in the lounge, which left dog hairs on our clothes. That said, we will be booking again to stay here.

VRBO listed property as having parking facilities - there were none. Very disappointed that the host didn’t leave a resident’s permit which would have cut our parking bill dramatically.
