Great views. Bach in fairly good condition. Some small maintenance jobs could be carried out. Would like the heat pump/ AC to be working in Winter/Summer too. Extra outdoor chair would be good. Some pots had to be washed before we could use them. Comfortable stay mostly although the single beds weren't great. Would stay again.

A Little Disappointing

Overall we felt the cleanliness was not up to standard, the bathroom particularly. Broken toilet seat was not good given it was broken last time we stayed which was a couple of years ago. Lock on back door broke mid stay. Beds are very uncomfortable. Oven needs instructions included in the home manual - it’s very confusing to operate. Great location, and overall fine - just needs a little TLC to fix a few things up.
