What our guests say

“Property was spotless on arrival and added bonus of tea, sugar, coffee and milk (phew as I forgot milk!)

Added bonus of en-suite and downstairs cloakroom, especially as 3 teens in tow.

The property is dog friendly.

Wooden flooring and the policy of no dogs on furniture or upstairs meant that you would never tell that dogs are allowed in the premises. like I have already mentioned, spotless.”
