The only niggles were they could do with updating the sofas as the seating was quite uncomfortable and new pillows in the bedrooms as they were very thin and I ended up going out and buying my own. Perhaps a little TLC is needed with a lick of paint. This isnât a criticism as we did really enjoy staying there and would definitely return.
