    Otherwise the property needed some cleaning and general maintenance to bring it up to standard. Parking was a distance away for anybody with a walking disability.

  • Joanne

    The courtyard was beautiful and good play area. The shower was not fit for purpose. It poured out the sides & soaked the bathroom so we ended up having to have baths. Also only one bath plug between two baths.

  • Grant

    The kids loved having the garden. Wish we could have stayed longer!
