Spent a week here in June and must admit we were quite disappointed the photos of the property are very deceiving from the photos we knew the bathrooms and kitchen were dated and old fashioned but the rest of the property looked ok, however the whole property is in need of a full renovation and a good clean and tidy up, unfortunately we wouldn’t visit again unless the property was renovated throughout. However that being said we couldn’t fault the view it was outstanding best part about the property.
