Cosy
We enjoyed this comfortable home. The upstairs bedrooms were a good large size and the fireplace in the lounge created a warm friendly atmosphere. The front yard and balls (in the garage) were well used with lots of kicking around. Could have done with more empty kitchen shelves as there was by much room for our food.
