Great location, comfy beds, has almost everything you need. The cleanliness could be improved and the property needs minor improvements, including modernisation and repairs throughout. We feel the value for money was good for March, but would’ve have been disappointed if we had paid more due to the above. Would recommend due to location and comfy beds.

Lovely house; very clean and plenty of space for four older teenagers and two adults . Excellent location. No parking but that wasn’t an issue for us as we rented a space just up the road. Only downside for us was the master bed being uncomfortable. I wouldn’t recommend for anyone with mobility issues as the stairs are very steep especially going down into the kitchen, but again not a problem for us. Would definitely recommend and use again.
