Large house ideal for family’s
House was situated just off the N59 approx 20mins drive out of Clifton. Very remote area but the views from the house were just breath taking Situated beside another two dwellings No where to walk or run from the house unless you cross over the N59. The house was perfect for our extended family four bathrooms gave us all plenty of space, beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped for us to cook

Great Family Location & House
Lovely house and area, house is remote so you need to Drive for anything, which was fine for us. For a large family or two families this is a great location. you are only short drives from beaches , towns and lots of activities. As long as the sun shines this is super location for that family get away. The house is large with lots of rooms for groups to split up in the evening, kids can watch TV, play view games, in one room, there is a lovely sun room for evening drinks, a hugh kitchen and 2nd TV couch area for gathering. There was a BBQ with outdoor seating also which was super in the evenings. You have full cooking facilities if you want and takeaway is about 25mins drive away.
