The property is perfect for families to spend time together. Spacious, clean and well equipped. The two sitting rooms had plenty of seating as did the dining room . It is somewhat tired and in need of maintenance but that didn’t spoil it for us and the children loved it there. If you want modern and new , it’s not for you. The amenity space is large and there is plenty of parking space and outside tables.Lovely quiet location within a short walk of the town.

Great stay. Great communication from the host. Would look to book again if work brings us back to the area.

A lovely house, very quiet. Ideal for a large family holiday. It would have helped to have an information pack with local information and Wi-Fi login. The house could also have benefitted from some TLC.
