Great place to stay!
Excellent place, location and service. Nothing to complain about and the host sorted out a couple of minor issues immediately.
Would definitely recommend to others.
It's a lovely, quirky property, ideal for a night or two stopover. Think it;s better suited to a couples rather than families, as four people felt a little cramped and the sleeping arrangements maybe not ideal for two teenagers. Overall, it gave us what we wanted at a good price and would recommend it to others.
