The hill was hard work but so worth it for those views. It could have done with a few more amenities, such as a clothes horse or something similar to dry clothes, more kitchen utensils and coat hangers and a hair dryer would have been a lovely extra. The fact that the TV is a smart TV should be advertised as that is a good selling point especially on those rainy evenings. Would definitely recommend.

We didn't eat in at all, and the steep hill adds to the quirkiness of the whole area. Helps to work off some calories consumed in the wonderful places to eat just a short walk away. We had no problems parking, there was always a space either right opposite or just a little further up Jawbone hill, never more than 50yds away and this was in peak school holiday time. The stove needs a bit of TLC and outdoor area at the rear is a little overgrown, but I think a lot of that is adjacent properties shrubs. All in all we had a wonderfull week here and would recommend.
