Just the right size for a couple for the weekend. Had everything we needed for a comfortable and peaceful stay. Really quiet location. Lots of lovely places to walk to. Would consider staying again in future. Thank you

Only because the temperature dropped after our first day to 18 degrees were we able to sleep. The hob would only work on the highest setting. The plug didn't work in the bathroom, there was no egg slice for frying eggs and the TV kept buffering, ie poor reception. It would have been preferable to have a toaster and microwave. The lounge area was cluttered with too many bean bags and there were no hooks in the bathroom to hang clothes and towels on and nowhere to hang clothes anywhere else. WiFi connection was very limited. There was no hand towel in the bathroom and no bathmat so floor got wet when using the shower and slippery. Shower water did not drain well. However, Hungerford Park is lovely and we saw lot of wildlife and the surrounding area was lovely too.
