Brilliant self catering with 9 en suites accommodation. Dining table accommodates all 18 of us. Lovely views, good walks nearby. We are returning next year for 4th visit.
We needed a comfortable, spacious property for 10 university friends in their seventies, for a reunion. This worked well with all en-suite bedrooms and the huge communal spaces.
