If a different apartment offered a better second bedroom we would not hesitate to rebook.

The Emma Suit was spacious and immaculate, as were the communal areas. The location is a stone throw from the town and its amenities while feeling secluded and rural. Itâs also a great base for visiting other areas of the lakes. Would and already have recommended this holiday let. Thank you for a wonderful holiday. Mark.
