Light and spacious. Pretty garden area . Bathrooms need shelves as nowhere to put toiletries other than on the floor. Some non stick saucepans need replacing as Teflon has chipped away. A lovely week!

Beds comfortable, towels lovely and soft, property was clean, kitchen was well equipped and it is in a great location. There were a few maintenance issues but nothing that affected our stay and these were fed back to Coast & Country. A floor plan on details would have been helpful before booking. We booked for 7 adults and only slight issue was bunk room - this is more suited to small children rather than older teenagers. All in all, would definitely recommend this property.
