Great location with fantastic scenery! A very clean property that is well equipped, with everything you may wish for. Plenty of wildlife including a variety of birds and a lovely balcony with chairs to sit and watch them.The property is very central to many of The Lakes attractions, with plenty to do and see within a 30 minute or so drive.
