A neat, compact dwelling, in a quiet area, that suits the requirements of one or two guests. Great location for access to the town or waterside. A relaxing place to stay.

Excellent stay. Stayed four nights and it was so quiet and peaceful. Very central Thames location. Beautifully clean and very new inside. Very nice yard with high lockable gate on the road front. Single bedroom perfect size for single or couple. I will for sure re-book when coming to this area. The only down side I would say is looking directly into the neighbours garden felt a little wrong but a taller fence on that one small side of the property would make a huge difference.I very much enjoyed staying here.
