.really central for everything..I've never been in a rented place with so many things included..fully equipped kitchen. Games ,smart TV, Bluetooth speakers.. Lots of steps but you are warned!..security gates on every stair opening for anyone with toddlers.. Couple of things need attention..water is very very hot after a minute..we had the dormer bedroom and the doors into the room and into the ensuite dont stay closed..the blinds on the velux also kept rolling back open...small things but worth looking at..all in all will definitely be back..many thanks..john.

The small wrinkles we had we're ironed out quickly and efficiently by lovely, friendly people. We have 2 or 3 tiny niggles which wouldn't stop us staying again but you might like to know about. 1. Shower regulation was erratic and often boiling hot/ freezing cold. 2. Sitting round the table as 9 was a tad difficult which could be helped by raising the height of the table perhaps. 3. We would have appreciated a Christmas tree no matter how small ;) These are just things that we think would make the Stoop an even better place to stay- we did have an absolutely magical family Christmas in your lovely property and are considering coming again if we can make the dates work.
