Reviews

We have just returned from a week's stay on this property. Firstly there is no open fire just two electric fires which have basically dumped into position with all the wires showing. The house although clean and comfortable needs a complete upgrade, it's like walking into a time warp and back to the 70s, stairs are dangerous for those who are not confident going up and down and for this I wouldn't recommend to elderly or those not with restricted movement. The outside area is crying out for maintenance and the garden area hasn't seen any work done in it for a while.
