While the cottage had everything you needed and was very clean and tidy we didn't expect the road to be as noisy as it was. If the weather had been kinder and we had sat out it would have been awful and you couldn't open a window for it. The adjacent park is great for a dog walk and would be great for young kids but the garden isn't suitable for either with sharp stones and a slope down to the park itself. Beds were great and standard of furniture and utensils, etc were excellent. If you could transport the property somewhere else you'd have a great holiday let.
