Summary: This home was perfect for our needs - from toddler up to grandma, 8 people managed to find more than enough space and comfort here. The fireplace was an amazing touch during the rainy, cold weather and the bathrooms were big, showers had great pressure, kitchen was easy to navigate. Would definitely enjoy staying here again.
