Areas of the bungalow were not as clean as we would like e.g. oven hob, bathroom. The bed linen and towels smelt musty. A better selection of cookware would have been appreciated too. However the bungalow was well appointed, comfy and warm. Sort out the above and it would make an excellent holiday let.

A lovely clean and comfortable bungalow in a quiet location and spacious driveway for parking. Adequately equipped for self catering. I would happily stay here again the next time I visit the area. The welcome pack, which included bread, milk, crisps, biscuits and jelly babies was very much appreciated.
