The television was very difficult to tune to main channels (could only find ITV). We did not have that problem when we were in Bunbury two years ago. The duvet was inflexible and very heavy meaning that I slept very badly. We did not have that issue when we were in Bunbury two years ago. These comments apply to 2017 when we also stayed in Bunbury. We without hesitation said in previous feedback that we would definitely recommend Bunbury
