Liked: Cleanliness
Fantastic communication before our stay, and very thankful to be allowed an extra person at late notice.Lovely location, and enjoyed the pool. Just a couple of things we noticed, which were tiny and did not inconvenience us. Just pointing them out in case they've been missed:The coat hook rack on the wall by from door: It falls out the wall should you attempt to hang anything but keys.The shower downstairs: The drainage may have a block, as the tray fills up quickly.The DVD Player: May be a disc stuck in it. Couldn't get it open.Thanks for a great Xmas stay! All the best.Alex
