Communication with the booking site has been great. They have got back to us within the same day. While we were away we had a couple of issues and haven't had these resolved.It's set in lovely grounds. Parts are looking tired and could do with an upgrade. The pool didn't appear heated and areas around the pool needed updating also, including the sun beds.

Lovely location, if there wasn't a building site next door

We really liked the villa and the quietness of it. The only exception is that each morning we had a couple of hours (from 8am) of noise from the building site that was next door. Although the house was clean it did have an infestation of ants.

Lovely villa in a quiet area. It is advertised as sleeping 10 people however the main part of the villa has only 2 bedrooms sleeping 4. There is an annexe sleeping 6 in 2 rooms and I would say one bedroom is only suitable for children as it has bunk beds and two Z beds. We didn’t rent a car for our 7 day stay. The Uber service was brilliant and reasonably priced. Our only criticism of the villas location was that there were no bins in the vicinity to dispose of our rubbish which we were not told prior to our stay. This was obviously a problem for us as we did not have any transport. The nearest rubbish bins were a mile away which was not ideal.

Die Anlage ist wunderschön und geräumig, die Unterbringung dennoch eher für 8 Personen geeignet (wir waren 9). Die Bäder könnten bald ein Update vertragen.
