    There are a few small things that require attention:- Fridge requires a couple of screws to hold it in place as every time you open it falls forward Ironing board cover needs replacing Tried to Open vellux window however somebody had wedged the handle there Also thought 2 dishwasher tablets for the size of the dishwasher for the week was very stingy However all in all a very nice holiday let and would recommend and use again

  • Sarah

    Pet friendly ,highly recommended

  • Ian

    The outside is not enclosed, meaning your dog has to be on the lead at all times unless you are playing together. In addition, the manual states clearly that it is Guide Dogs only, and don't let them on the grass! Where else was Honey going to wee etc? Apart from that, Genoawas wonderful.
