Jane L.

Spacious
An older property with thick walls, well looked after and with everything you need. Great attention to detail with four folders giving information about the property and things to do in the locality. The road is quiet and it is a wonderful walk into the village along the river and past the park. Some noise comes from above - there was a toddler finding his/her feet when we were there but it wasn't intrusive. We enjoyed our stay and will try to come again.
