On Sykes photos it plainly shows a bath in the property. But since getting there the bath had been replaced y a very high quality shower cubicle. I took my bath board thinking I could use the bath with easy. Martin the owner order me a shower stool so I could use the new shower. Which was very kind of him. He was very considerate and thoughtful in every way. He made my stay very comfortable The property is very homely and comfortable for able people .
