A hair dryer would also be a useful addition. The gas safety certificate appeared to be out of date, which may need checking.

Clean,private, and a beautifull enclosed garden for our dogs. Central to so many walks. Amenities close by even a beautiful park. Certainly would recommend staying here, infact this was our 2nd year so that is a good recommendation in itself.
