The house was very spacious and clean, the kitchen was well equipped with everything needed ,the welcome basket was a nice touch ,there were a few minor things that stopped me giving it 5 stars ,the armchair in the lounge had a very big tear on the arm,the toilet seat in the master bedroom was loose due to a broken hinge, and the stair carpet is badly frayed and worn the top step is actually a trip hazard. The property has a lovely garden which attracts lots a birds ,at twilight our grand kids enjoyed watching the bats from the conservatory. The property is just across from a swing park with tennis courts and and football goals .An easy walk to shops and the most picturesque harbour We had a lovely time and a bit of TLC to the property would have been 5 stars.
