Great location. There were some maintenance issues with the central heating, and there was also some noise from the flat above on occasion. However, well furnished and very clean.

Great position at the top of the town, but a short walk to the action, a nicely kitted out flat, up on the second floor, with 4 flights of stairs, so not for anyone not very mobile.

Rural Retreats describe it as a ‘beautiful and well presented apartment’ which in our opinion it is not. The only area we can rate it highly is on location. The flooring, with exception of kitchen/dining area, needs complete refurbishment. The flat needs redecorating. The cleaning needs improvement, ie flies on window ledges lamps not working. Water leak through fan in bathroom bringing down black ‘bits’. Uncomfortable sofas. Communal areas need complete refurbishment. Overall not up to RR usual high standard-we have been a customer for many years.
