Very clean accommodation inside and out. Great grass area for my pet and outdoor covered patio area with lots of tables and chairs to accommodate guests. Also provided plenty of coffee and sugars and creamers. Also provided soaps shampoos and conditioners blow dryers. Very nice accommodation. I will be staying there again.
