Home truths

    This home is spread across two floors with no internal lift – please note there are four ground-floor bedrooms and bathrooms.

    At full occupancy two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in one of the living rooms.

    Your host can provide a cot and high chair for free upon request.

    Children will need to be supervised outside and around the swimming pool at all times.

    You won't find a welcome hamper or basic essentials here, so we'd recommend packing some bits and bobs to get you started.
