Home truths
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. However, cars are not allowed on the grounds at the property - you must park in a designated area and each guest can drive in with a golf cart to unload their luggage.

The pool is open from 1 May to 31 October. It isn't fenced, so if you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
