  • Barbara

    Was not ground floor as listed it was 1st floor above the holiday rental shop which was not mentioned in listing. Key collection for over 30 properties right outside the gate of the garden so was unaware with dog when people were right behind the gate. Not good if you have a reactive dog. Flat could do with some repairs like toilet roll holder hanging off tiles, leaking tap, & pressure from shower head not great. Also outside area was not useable during stay as everything covered in leaves & garden bench cushions / loungers appeared mouldy or dirty from garden debris. Flat itself generally clean & towels left for us along with a box of shortbread & tea & coffee which was nice. Sofa not overly comfortable, beds were fine. Overall a pleasant stay
