Itâs very compact but it does the job for the week and the location is convenient and quiet. Last year after our stay we were asked to write a review - and generally I gave a good overall rating. I did however give the owner a private snagging list of things we thought would be helpful for them to know and which would hopefully make other guests have a better experience. Little things like the knobs on the inside of the bathroom door were pulling off and the toilet roll holder on the wall was very loose and near to falling off. There was no veg peeler in the kitchen drawer and no small oven trays to cook food on in the oven so we had to use the huge grill pan instead. The fridge is a larder fridge with no freezer compartment. The toaster was also faulty with the heating elements only working on 3 sides. Returning to the same property this year we found the issues in the bathroom have been addressed however, we were disappointed to find that the kitchenette is exactly as it was. Fortunately we brought with us our own utensils and disposable metal trays. There were no oven gloves available and the washing up liquid was watered down. After our visit last year the owners of the property probably thought theyâd never see us again and probably thought the missing/faulty items in the kitchenette were too minor to bother with. Iâm of a different opinion and feel strongly enough to put my views into my public review. Additionally the property is quite dusty this visit and overall looks less well cared for. The yard outside is a jungle of weeds and very uninviting and one of the neighbours was very unwelcoming and told us we shouldnât be parking on the cobbles. Our decision is that we wonât be returning to this particular property again.

It was reasonably affordable and I think fairly recently furnished and was in a good location for friends and family. Thanks a lot.
