We had an absolutely wonderful stay. Alex's holiday home was fully equipped with everything you needed for a stay. Takeaways and pubs just around he corner, great walks to take the dogs out. And don't let me to even start on the upstairs bathroom... TV and a jacuzzi bath add a fire to warm yourself up after a rather cold day and it all adds up to the wonderful short break. Hoping to return soon.
