The pool is lovely and very secure, and the house has everything you need already there, cots, high chairs, pushchairs, deck chairs & parasol. There were plenty of towels, linen, blankets, supplies in the kitchen and bathroom, and Lyn had put together essentials for the fridge and pantry to make sure you’re all set no matter what time you arrive.
