Great spot

Easy 10 min walk to town, never stayed on that side of town but lovely and quiet. House is perfect for 2 families with kids. Plenty warm and dry and comfortable. Nowhere to lock up bikes so make sure you bring a long chain to lock them together! We had a great weekend.

Family Times

we were very pleased with our stay, plenty of room for us all and some extra visitors for dinner. Close to the town centre. Quiet and very well equipped. We brought our own towels and sheets. It ws good to have some Childrens toys and books as our grandchildren had flown in from up north. Overall stay we were very pleased. Would we book again at this house? Simple answer is yes.
