Beautiful holiday home that was comfortable and fully equipped. Appreciated the addition of the extra bits (e.g. dishwasher tablets, foil) as well as books and toys for the kids. My children loved to play football and in the games room with other children from the other cottages. Woodpecker Barn was just as described in the advert and we would definitely visit again.
