    The owners had left us a note to explain about a problem with the TV and when we experienced a further issue they replaced the TV immediately. Left with plenty of privacy to enjoy it and the provision of a hot tub added to our stay. The welcome pack was provided with plenty of thought and the added touches of providing dog bowls and towels was really appreciated. We would definitely stay there again, we like our home comforts so that speaks volumes from us!
