This property has so much potential but, as highlighted in a previous review, the unpleasant drain odour in one of the bathrooms is still present which infiltrated one of the double bedrooms, even with the bathroom door closed. The photos of the property also show items of furniture which are no longer in the property, most noticeably the egg chair in the living room and seating at the end of one of the double beds. Saying that, we had a good week away in the accomodation. The property is light and airy with good parking and it was an ideal base from which to explore.
