Certainly would return..and isnt that the best measure of all?About the only quibble I had was that the beds were firm and for me uncomfortable...mattresses possibly due for replacement. But this has to be set against its many other attributes and still made it very much a winner for us. The welcome pack was generous and appreciated.Beautiful area with plenty to see and do. Can recommend
