We had a wonderful weekend at Simpson house. The location is exceptional, the walk straight down to the beach perfect, the big, immaculate grassed areas for the kids to play is great, the kitchen is really well equipped and we were so happy you had a decent bluetooth speaker because we forgot ours. Thanks again.
