Great property which actually has views of the lake and is ideally situated - close to everything but also quiet. The property was immaculately clean with all the utensils that you need for cooking. Lovely clean, fresh bedding and towels. Tea, coffee and sugar were provided along with the basics like salt, pepper and oil. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash were also provided. Only slight criticisms would be not a great deal of storage available for food and it would be nice if a few coathangers were provided - there are plenty of hooks but no wardrobe so shirts/blouses had to hang on hooks. I also noted that the What To Do In The Event Of A Fire sticker - which should be in a prominent position, was in a bedroom drawer and had not been completed - easily rectified. A great stay though - would certainly recommend to anyone wishing to stay in the area.
