In addition to being overgrown and full of weeds, there is rubbish in the garden such as metal posts, metal/plastic bins, metal/plastic piping, bricks/rubble, wooden fencing and concrete paving/slabs.

Lots of storage and roomy for the two of us and our dog who explored the fenced garden. The WiFi was very patchy and we needed to keep putting the password back in. No DVD player. There was a lot of stones piled up in the garden that were not in the photographs. The location was perfect, not far from lots of Interesting places to visit and was very very peaceful.
