Nice house and a good base.
I will list the pros and cons of the property.
Pros :
The photos are a good reflection of the house.
The beds are clean and comfortable.
The decor is good.
The kitchen is equipped well.
Its a good base and its secure.
The shower is hot and good.
Cons
The area is not the best, however it is safe and quiet
As mentioned in the other review the flooring outside the downstairs bathroom is unstready.
This wasnt explained but you turn thr boiler on in the kitchen. You need this for hot water in the shower and sinks.
The cupboards in the kitchen only should have a lining so that they look better and more presentable, and every other room and outside are good.Overall id return and a good.stay.

As there were no directions on how to locate the property it to us over 3 hours the arrive at the front door which was locked and we did not have the code to the key safe. When we finally got in we were put of by the flooring in the small hallway it was not stuck down at all. when we went into the bathroom we were disgusted with filthy state of the shower curtain. The TV took some understanding on how to get to work, you had to unplug the mains lead then plug it back in again

It was not the best looking area so understand why no pictures of the exterior, it was a quiet area though and very close to amenities.Interior thought was good. The main issue was the floor in the bathroom, the floor is lifting and uneven, we also had a problem getting the shower to work, the “thingy” that you pull up to divert the water from tap to shower was really hard. Lastly 6 bags of garden rubbish appeared in the front garden yesterday. ?? Were from but a bit concerning. Instructions on how to work the tv would be good. Would stay again thank you.
