Family of 8 plus 3 dogs for a 4 day break. House fitted our requirements and the hot tub, sauna and games room we're well used. Sunniside village won't win any prizes but it was pretty local to all we wanted to do. Unfortunately the local pub doesn't open everyday and wasn't serving food due to a new landlord moving in.
