    The main living space is lovely and filled with light. The mezzanine floor is excellent and comfortable including the sofa. The Sofa in main living area is uncomfortable though and not suitable for someone with a bad back . Main bedroom is a reasonable size and the en-suite is large. There were some problems when we arrived. After an almost 5 hr journey through a storm we arrived unscathed. It was just slow going. However … the storm had caused some issues There was no bedding in the main bedroom. No toilet paper anywhere or toilet cleaner. The toilet in the en-suite apeard to be dirty with limescale. Tried using the toilet brush but needed lime scale remover. The other 2 bathrooms were ok but no toilet paper. There was a message on my mobile about the bedding. I called at least twice but there was no helpful advice and then the office closed. If I had taken the kids with me I’d have phoned the emergency line. Found the what’s app and left a message asking to be contacted and left photos. We provide our own toilet paper and made improvised bedding. In the morning someone got in touch and bedding was provided :) Feels like the lessons learnt here is to have emergency provisions on site so they can give someone instructions on how to access emergency items in case of issues. There was no follow up to check everything was sorted. Except for this feedback request. Property has good views and was otherwise nice to be in. Excellent location.

    This was our second visit at the same time as last year. There are some aspects that could be improved such as having a microwave in the kitchen especially with children, the small shower room/toilet extract fan was very noisy so needs replacing, the dishwasher didn't always clean cups fully leaving tea stains so needed to be washed up. The flat below also complained about ceiling noise which was simply from a toddler walking around on the hard floor so there wasn't much we could do about it.
