On arrival the front balcony was covered in leaves and dust, all the windows were dirty and stained. Internally the dark pine showed up all the dust especially on the louvre doors in the bedrooms. Cobwebs in every room. Our holiday started with cleaning the balcony and windows and the rest of the above. We left the property in a better state than we arrived.

We enjoyed having the pool close to the property. Plenty of things to do in the area and local pubs for evening meals. The welcome pack was a nice touch. The only draw back was that we thought it a little expensive.
