We had a very large room and bed. It also came with a sofa bed which we didn’t need. It had a bathtub, which I loved. Also, we were given a ground floor room which was so helpful with our large bags. The property was in an adorable town, right on the water. The attached pub/dining area was good. We had a yummy pizza! Great stay!
