Lovely home from home in a great location with on street parking included

Our stay at Garfield was really good. The house is big, presented attractively and sympathetic to the buildings age. The outside space is a real bonus, and has a very tree full view due to the really interesting cemetery behind it. The kitchen and reception rooms are huge, as are the two main bedrooms. Plenty of bathrooms and loos for a party of 10. Wine was a nice touch, thank you! And I love it when a holiday home provides little things like foil/ cling film. Wonderful location, you can walk to everywhere, and the parking is ample we managed to get 2 small cars in the back parking area so that left plenty of parking cards. Beds are comfy, loads of crockery and glassware, all you could need. All in all a great holiday house. Only small gripe, could you provide larger dishes?!

House was amazing just what we needed for our family weekend away. The only thing I would say was the towels and bedding could do with updating, everything else was great.
