Laura
The house has more than enough space for extra large families or extended families, none of the rooms were small, and the communal rooms ie the kitchen, dining room and living rooms we're really well equipped. The hosts were extremely accommodating, and communication was very good. We really enjoyed our stay.

The living space was excellent with plenty of room for eating and relaxing and the kitchen equipped with everything needed for home cooking. The only thing I would suggest is that there are 2 key safe locks and if like I did go to the wrong one you feel as you canât get in so would suggest stating where it is along with the code

The house was exactly as described and very clean and tidy. There were 15 of us and the well equipped kitchen made it easy to cater for everyone at once - oven space especially appreciated! All of us being able to get round the large dining table made for easy meal times. Hot tub was fantastic and much larger than expected. Bedrooms were all good sized and comfortable. Plenty of downstairs space and comfortable seating. The kids loved having the fun zone to play in and have some time away from the adults. The location was perfect too - such a short walk to the main town and to the beach made it perfect for a mixed family group to each please themselves. Communication from the home owner was great too - never had the visitors information book provided in advance before but it was very useful and much appreciated.
