    The only problem was getting a Tiguan into the parking area. We ended up parking on the road. Otherwise, we had a fabulous time.

    I was surprised by the small size of the bunk room which was much smaller than I would have hoped but, given the age and layout of the building I can see the constraints on fitting in a third bedroom. There were a few broken items and lamp bulbs not working but nothing that had a huge impact on the holiday. We spent quite a while trying to find the WiFi code (crucial for the kids) as we are not familiar with the BT router having it on the back. Might be handy for future guests if you put a note on the kitchen notice board explaining where to find it.

    I had no problems with the entrance gates, or reversing the car in (Golf), the gates seem to be in good condition but just need a little adjusting to make them work better. The small bedroom contains bunk beds, it would be much better with just one bed, so you could at least move about in there.
