Lovely rental
The rental was as described and very well kept. It was comfortable and the grounds were very pretty. The downside was the pool was basically entirely in the shade, and one night the local fire department siren woke me up.

It was quite lovely, many different spaces and places for different people to hang out chat and cook
We cooked the entire time we were there, everything we needed was there. Just a couple of things, for meal prep, need some sharp knives, and for 7 adults, there was not enough coffee for 3 mornings, the rest was all good clean, beds and sofa bed was comfy. Easy in and Easy out!
