Location was excellent, a matter of minutes from the fantastic port and high street.Communication with the owner was great. Property has a quirky layout and had everything we needed. Enclosed garden and furniture would benefit from a little TLC but very functional space. A couple of minor issues were raised directly with owner, ie microwave, velux in bedroom but neither effected our stay.Happy to recommend but property is spread over 3 floors and would benefit massively from a downstairs WC
