    Both the location and the flat itself were excellent. There were a few things that would benefit from attention though they did not detract from our enjoyment. These were the small number of knives in the cutlery draw, the Wi-Fi connection that often went off for a while, and a sticky flush mechanism in the family bathroom.

    You could sit in the window and watch the views all day long. The apartment is spacious and beautifully furnished throughout. Do bear in mind there are four flights of wide winding stairs with landings on each level. Sadly the cooking utensils are cheap, with poor surface for cleaning and poor handles. The knives aren't sharp and in need of a sharpening device. (blunt knives are more dangerous than sharp knives). Sealant around sink and bathroom is poor and could quickly deteriorate the timbers and edges, causing mould etc. Such a shame all these point not a requirement, by the letting agents. Parking can be a problem, however we paid online to have a weeks parking in the nearby Asda Supermarket for £12 per 7 days. A little known secret that even Supermarket staff wont tell you, as it requires a parking app "Just Park".

    One small quibble was that we had to climb over the furniture to pull the blinds in the bedroom.Not easy for two eighty pluses! Otherwise it was a lovely stay.Thank you.
