A parking place is a massive plus point, & being on the garden level with use of the private pontoon was great for us for Kayaking & also the communal storage facility for storing it. The studio is well equipped with everything that you need, the only thing that it is lacking is a little plug in hob - we took our own with us with a couple of pans after reading a previous review pointing this out. We found the bed very comfortable & the shower room perfectly functional. I did drop something onto the floor & had to pick it up as had rolled under the bed; a note for the cleaning team - it needs all needs pulling out & a good hoover under there! Also a couple of surface spots of mildew around the patio doors are starting to appear as it seems to get condensation during the cooler weather. Nothing that can't be cleaned & sorted very easily & it certainly wouldn't stop me from staying there again.

Iâve stayed in the building before but first stay at number 7. I appreciate not everyone wants a kitchenette or a tiny shower room but I felt this was described accurately on the listing so no complaints. I wanted easy access to the water so this place was perfect. I was able to store my paddle board in the communal store and head out from the pontoon. I loved having the sliding doors onto the garden, great view over the harbour. Easiest of walks to the pool which I used a lot. Great base to explore from! Also, not a grumble as itâs personal preference, I just wish holiday listings included info on mattress type- the bed is very soft, not great for lower back issues!
