Mi è piaciuto: Pulizia, check-in, comunicazione, posizione e accuratezza dell’annuncio
The house was perfect for our group of friends. Hosts responded as soon as we called and were very accommodating. House was clean. Would recommend to families as they have a huge back yard for children and adults to play some sports.

This property was the perfect size for our large family group, who were staying here while attending a memorial service. Having everyone together in one place was really important to us, and the property provided plenty of space for everyone to relax and spend time together.The kids especially loved the trampoline, which was definitely a highlight for them and helped keep them entertained during our stay. There was also enough room for the adults to socialise, while still giving everyone their own space when needed.Although the property is not brand new, it was well suited to our requirements and worked well for our group. We appreciated having a property that could accommodate a large number of people comfortably, particularly during what was an emotional and important time for our family.There are a few small maintenance issues that could be addressed to improve the overall experience and keep the property in good condition. These did not prevent us from enjoying our stay, but attending to them would certainly make the property even more comfortable for future guests.Overall, the property met our needs well and was a practical choice for our large family group. We appreciated the space and facilities, and the kids certainly made the most of the trampoline!!!!
