There appears to be some sort of damp issue at this property which is causing an awful smell. A dehumidifier was plugged in but this didn’t help at all.All of our clothes absolutely stank and had to be washed on our return.It was clean but would definitely benefit from some decorating and modernisation.Really disappointed and not good value for money at all I’m afraid.

Good location. Building works a little intrusive. An issue with the parking. It wasn't clear exactly how many parking spaces were on the left. We blocked the slot for the upstairs resident who was not happy and way extremely rude and aggressive.

Lovely little market town, very pretty and plenty of eating places. The apartment was spacious and comfortable, apart from a Very low sofa we had difficulty getting out of. The lighting in the living room was rather dim, but overall the apartment was good - and we had wonderful weather for the whole week!
