We had a comfortable 2-day break and enjoyed the stunning river views. The property description however is overblown and it is let down by a lack of attention to detail.In particular the kitchen does not have “everything you need” eg no chopping board, breadboard, corkscrew etc. and just 4 of everything eg stained mugs, tinny cutlery. There was an empty bottle of Fairy and no dishwasher tablets. No welcome basket. Being adjacent to a vineyard we might have expected a voucher at least.The surroundings are not especially peaceful as there is considerable road noise at night.
