Bright and spacious with the car parking facility a real bonus. We would certainly recommend the accommodation to friends.

The website showed all the fine rooms etc but not the stairs in any way, nor was there a hint of stairs saying, for instance, that it was a duplex. I had assumed the website was showing everything on the level. I managed with difficulty and some trepedition but overall enjoyed our holiday.Just think somebody even less mobile should be made aware there are stairs.

The dog loved it too. The convenience of parking, location and it being so quiet is just perfect - thank you!
