Great little batch with everything you need for a relaxing stay. A well thought out and planned batch. The 2nd bedroom can be used as a 2nd lounge for kids with boredgames and movies at the ready for rainy days. Equipped kitchen with a perfect little espresso machine (not a pod) at hand for those of us who enjoy good coffee. Highly recommend.

Cosy very modern property, excellent amenities including dishwasher and great TV’s. Clean but negative was the strong and unpleasant smell of dogs in the property including the bedrooms. On my next property search I will ensure I don’t pick a pet friendly property. 😞
