Lovely property very clean and modern.Very close to all amenities.The only problem we had was with the heating as we couldn't get it to come on so two days with my clothes on as it dropped very cold over the weekend.Also the front door key needs replacing as it kept coming away from the black plastic top bit and getting stuck in the door.Would stay there again.
