Highly recommend. Great for a couple or family with a young child. Absolutely stunning location. Hosts are warm and welcoming and looked after our well being. Usually self catering comes with empty kitchen pantry. Not this one. Hosts ensured kitchen was stacked with basics - Milk, Coffee, Condiments and an extra touch with short breads.We will come again.
