Very good

This is not a bad house and the location is good. However, the house is badly let down by its small and very dated kitchen. Also, the dishwasher, pans and kitchen utensils should have been more thoroughly cleaned. The microwave didn’t work properly and needs replacing.
Property had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Perfect location although not to easy to find even with Sat Nav. Parking was fairly close so not too far to carry our bags.
