  • Susan

    Would have liked more information on bins and recycling as this varies from place to place. The kitchen would benefit from a few more items for cooking such as baking trays and roasting dishes. Some mixing bowls too. It was great to find an air fryer.

  • Janet

    The only minor negative point was that the wifi range was limited to the downstairs only. Would definitely visit again.

  • Andrew

    We understand that the normal cleaner was unavailable on the day between changeovers which probably accounted for the issues we encountered but it did not spoil our enjoyment. Very well appointed accommodation with very comfortable mattresses on the three beds.
