Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Location and view was beautiful
Negative: Building was in progress next door, which was unpleasant, especially if you want to relax at the house during the day, and they were there every day of the week, excepting the weekend. Whilst we were warned, we didn't know and appreciate the extent of the invasion at the pool area. The lower oven in the kitchen didn't work .
Summary: Pleasant Stay
