Lovely house and location with hot tub in the garden a bonus!The downstairs bedroom wasn’t as nice as the rooms upstairs however overall the house was lovely.A few items that would be helpful include a grater and there were no oven gloves. Also a bit more lighting in dining area and living room would be great.Overall a fantastic stay though and loved the area!
