Wonderful self catering holiday let. The owners have provided absolutely everything needed whilst there, which is quite rare, as there usually tends to be something missing/not working when we've rented other places to stay. The house is roomy and you have the option to sit on the balcony, or the grass area next to canal outside the front door. We have never returned to the same holiday place, but we're seriously considering this one :)
