10/10 Excellent

all excellent; only issue is that the doors did bang very loudly and bedroom a little cool

As above. The accommodation was excellent. The only three minor issues were: 1) key box could be better labelled; 2) the doors did bang despite our attempts - not good for those downstairs (!); and 3) the bedrooms were a little cold at night.

10/10 Excellent

Stunning location, clean, comfortable beds, perfect for big groups

Well equipped, spacious and clean. Nice towels and good water pressure. Good directions/instructions and car parking permit is useful. A few small niggles, only one key provided and one door that slammed occasionally.
