Garden was a great plus for the dogs. Might be worth mentioning it is on a complex with other holiday lets. Parking easy and well laid out. The barn was very comfy and warm ( those thick walls helped) wi fi good considering where we were. A good stop for exploring the beaches ( most 1/2 hr away) 1/4 mile track up to the cottages once done you know where you are all sorted. Thank you for the stay.

Secondly the vacuum cleaner did not work, was completely blocked so could not pick up anything, the lady next door let me borrow hers. Thirdly some shelving or something in the bathroom to put toiletries etc, had to buy a small tray to put things in and leave it on the floor and a soap dish in the shower.
