    This four-bedroom holiday home with 4 Queen sized beds and 2 single beds is spread across two levels and the top level is where the magic happens. Views pouring in from the east, setting the perfect relaxing tone for your escape to the Lake.

Our stay

Our over all stay at the property was great apart from being cold, the property would need a heatpump down stairs also the Fire place upstairs being in the wall is not enough for the size of the property hopefully something is done for the next winter.
