On the whole we were pleased with the accommodation. It was comfortable enough and had just about all we needed. Some cleaning issues presented themselves, mainly in the bathroom. Around the bottom of the toilet pedestal was really not very clean at all. Skirting boards in several areas were dusty/ dirty. Also when we stripped the bedding before leaving, we found the mattress cover and pillows were quite stained- not very nice to find at all. The accommodation is in a great area, perfect for the town and its facilities and handy for lots of walks without the need to take a car, and obviously the parking space is a big advantage.
