Guestbook
Having been the very first visitors to this property, we felt very lucky and very spoiled. It was in showroom condition and our stay has given us ideas for our own home, but we wotn be able to buy the views from the front door, unless MFI decide to sell views? Thank you once again Sheila and Derick Arnold - Seaford,Sussex.
