We loved the outside areas, so did the dog. Overall we enjoyed the property, particularly the pool table and table tennis. Plenty of parking was also a great asset. The one real downside were the two double beds. We could cope with the narrower width than our beds at home, but oh the mattresses - just not deep enough, and no give on the slats. Probably Ikea - suitable maybe for occasional use in a spare room, but just not up to standard for this job. The pre supplied Guide was very good and easy to follow.
