.Convenient for getting to the town centre and eating venues. Parking wasn't particularly easy especially when your luggage etc has to be carried down. We had to use number 2 car parking area which was quite expensive for the week. Overall a good week

Well maintained and spotlessly clean. Very convenient and close to all amenities, and the parking permit worked well too. Highly recommended.
