Just right size for large group.Hot tub a bonus but also great location for the town and the beach. The extra car parking spaces were good as the one at the house was quite tight to navigate for a larger car. Recommended.
Colin
Very close to all facilities, This is not a complaint but the radiator in the front bedroom has a pinhole in it which I suspect is causing the boiler to lose pressure.. Overall we had a really good time at Normandy house. Colin
