We arrived on a rainy night and fumbled with the first lock inside the gate until we were advised to go upstairs to the lock on the front door.The unit was as described, but the bedding was stained and obviously not laundered. We requested a replacement duvet the next day and it arrived with sheets etc which was appreciated.The unit was noisy as it backed onto a very busy highway.It was quite dangerous getting down the stairs in the frost. Perhaps some attention could be paid to this to avoid a nasty accident.It was value for money and close to our tournament base.

Freeway

The only problem we had was the constant noise from traffic. I guess we didn’t realise how close the location was to the freeway! We never did find the unit manual! Otherwise all good.

Great place to stay

Overall great place to stay. The only thing I'd note is the noise from the motorway is very noticeable. Didn't bother us though.
