Spacious, clean, warm accommodation in convenient location.
We were very happy with our choice of accommodation. There was plenty of space for our family of five. It was clean and warm and had really nice touches like the books under the coffee table and the super soft blankets on the beds. It had been a very busy week preceding our stay so we were very grateful to find there was a Thai restaurant across the road where we could get takeaways that night. We were only a short walk from the waterfront, cafes and playground which was great with young children.

Very happy with accommodation. Nicely appointed kitchen. Separate bedroom - bathroom space for me and my girlfriend each. Lounge - dinning area very nice. Only comment - soap dispensers in both showers had not been filled.
Great location, so close to town/shops and waterfront. Very enjoyable stay.

Our Stay
The property was ready upon our arrival although I had contacted the owner 15 minutes prior to ask if we could come in a bit earlier. The place had not been serviced. When I contacted Bookabaslch I was asked to give them time. When we got back there used towels in the washing machine,no amenities in the bathroom, lovely place but the service was disappointing
