    The location was mind-blowing, just a short walk from the town centre. The room was super clean and had a smart TV, spacious wardrobe, and a jaw-droppingly comfortable double bed. The bathroom was modern and spotless with heating for drying clothes. Having access to a fully equipped kitchen and a washing machine was a game-changer. Furniture and fittings were top-notch, the shower was great, and the bed was super comfy. Checking in was a breeze, and the host was always quick to respond to any issues. a highly recommended stay for a fantastic experience!

    We had a fantastic stay at a modern and nice lodge. the house was sparkling clean, the bed was comfortable, and the room was nicely designed. the landlord was attentive and quickly resolved a lighting issue we had. the response to any issues was fast and we highly recommend this place. We would definitely stay again on our next business trip.

    Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes. 😊.

    Stayed in a cozy holiday home with a lovely garden and free WiFi. Didn't have to worry about sharing with strangers, it was all mine!

    Wasn't a fan of the coffee/tea makers and irons/ironing boards, really ruined the overall experience.

    Stayed at a lovely lodge with a garden and free WiFi. So nice to have the whole place to myself, no annoying strangers to deal with.

    Oh, and just perfect that there's no parking. Who needs a parking spot when you can pay a fortune at a local carpark?

    Absolutely mind-blowing stay! The rooms were super clean and comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TV kept the kids entertained, and the express check-in/-out made everything so convenient. We loved having outdoor dining options and the option for cots for the little ones. Plus, it was great that there were no pets allowed and no smoking on site. Highly recommended!

    Home away from home" is truly an understatement for this vacation home. The kitchen, equipped with modern appliances including a microwave, allowed us to whip up delicious meals just like a professional chef. It was as if we had our very own cooking show!

    Lack of parking.

    Perfect for a family wedding, the en-suite double bedrooms were clean and well-equipped. The yard and dining room were great for relaxing. The kitchen had everything we needed and the welcome pack was a nice touch. Convenient shops and a pub nearby. Quiet area at night. Easy check-in and check-out. Highly recommended.
