It was ok but there were a couple of things that were not good. 1. Not enough information on the heating times, use of cooker and other appliances. Did not have a clue about the TV as we do not have sky but had to find out by trial and error. 2. Dreadful smell in conservatory and other TV room. Made me feel nauseous. When we arrived it was very cold but we had no idea when the heating was going to come on or go off. Had to use the electric fire a lot.

Bungalow was very nice and had everything required for a restful stay, TV in snug room didn't work however this was just due to the remote. Excellent walks for the dog, all the neighbours were very welcoming and the gardener was really friendly.We will stay here again.
