Great location & loved the outside seating area, they've made great use of a small space which gets the late afternoon sun. Kitchen well equipped & actually had sharp cooks knives!. Comfy beds & furnishings & nice bathroom. Only teeny niggle was that shower cubicle had no shelf or corner basket in which to place shampoo & shower gels etc, putting them within easy reach rather than scrabbling for them on the shower cubicle floor.
