As Described

I didn’t actually get to stay there, thanks COVID you suck, but my friends tell me that the place was as described. Comfy and close to the pub, apparently that was a pre-requisite. Every group has that one guy who likes to complain mine said that the heating could be better but they live in a furnace so take that comment with a grain of salt. Next time I might be able to stay a night, but I need to say thanks on my mates behalf.

Very well set up and located property

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this house. Fantastic location, really warm, and was nicer than the photos I thought. The short walk to the pubs/shops, the comfortable lounge furniture and the large garage with automatic opener were appreciated. A couple of suggestions for the otherwise really well stocked house would be some kitchen scissors and an HDMI cable for the TV!

A great place to stay house very well laid out

Some glasses were in short supply as we invited 4 friends for drinks. One glass was badly chipped and we left it on the window shelf. However the stay was very comfortable and we would recommend it while heartedly
