Notes: Children are welcome but because the house has balconies and the garden, a pond, a well, steps and decking built out from the hillside, very young children do need a high degree of supervision to unsure their safety. The bathroom and shower room are on the first floor, so it is essential that any guest can manage stairs. We ask that smokers only do so outside, either on the balcony or the terrace. The playroom on the first floor, has two children's beds in it, but you do have to go through this room to reach one of the double bedrooms and both the bathroom and shower room. We have books, games and puzzles for both kids and adults and a full sized table tennis table.
