Summary: This is a lovely property let down by general maintenance. Pro’s; Plentiful hot water, very comfy beds, good quality linens and towels, quick wi-fi, well equipped kitchen, comfy seating, location to areas of interest, well stocked local shop.Con’s; Situated on a very busy road and junction, stairs to attic bedroom a lot steeper and narrower than anticipated from the description, the skylight blinds didn’t close, no locks on bathroom doors, very wobbly toilet seats and taps, kitchen window handle broken, no parking, the outside of the property was very untidy with some very big weeds and dirty windows and paintwork, the front door latch didn’t engage properly and required some attention.Also to note that was that the Rooks were nesting in the trees opposite and were very active at around 9pm and 4.30am! We appreciate that this is nature and didn’t cause us an issue but if you were trying to settle younger children it would be something to consider.
