    The dog run was very dirty and we had to clean this and buy a lock too! No garden and very small patio. Very dirty rug which when shook outside fell apart and was charged for this and dog hair.

  • Lorraine

    Very comfortable and well equipped. The only let down was not being made aware of the construction of houses 50 yards from the property. This was very noisy at 7.30am every morning. When on holiday it wasn’t very nice to be disturbed at this time.

  • Nicholas

    We felt at home as soon as we walked through the door.
