Lovely house in a very convenient setting with very good amenities. Excellent access to onsite facilities, especially the swimming pool and fitness centre shared only with a few other families and bookable daily for exclusive use. Comfy beds and lovely bathrooms. Very spacious. Air cooling very welcome in the ground floor rooms and the larger double first floor room. The niggles were few but important. We were there in the extreme heat and the family members in the top (second floor) bedroom found the lack of air cooling a real problem. Same was true of the small first floor bedroom.
