Apr 21, 2018 #### Loved this property, the house itself is great and the views are lovely. Loved this property, the house itself is great and the views are lovely. The only downsides were that the cleaning could be improved and bedding provided could do with an upgrade, we provided our own linen so that was not really an issue but thought it worth noting for future guests. Otherwise the house was magic and we had a very enjoyable stay. ##### Courtney H. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Elna M.
