Warm Heated pool
The whole family loved the pool and enjoyed the tennis court.
Using the cottages for 4 people means that 2 people in the attic look down on the 2 below.
The Wi-Fi in Oast did not work. We said this but it was not made good as promised. (This is trivial)
The family loved it and would book again.
The online listing did not say how good the pool is.

Wonky Weekend
I booked this for a weekend break with my friends to celebrate my 50th birthday. The house and the cottages are beautiful, they have all the amenities you could need. What made the weekend for us was the swimming pool, we literally spent the whole day in and around the pool.
I would highly recommend this property and the hosts!
