lovely family stay

amazing hosts wonderful breakfast castle bunkbeds
The hosts were amazing. breakfast was wonderful, it reminded me of childhood holidays. the location was also fantastic. It was only a short walk to the beach. the kids especially loved the castle bunk beds in our room.
i found the flooring in the entrance hallway to be a bit loose in some areas, slightly concerning.
