There was no storage space or a mirror in the room. Luckily there was only one person sleeping in it but they still struggled to put their clothes somewhere. The overall property was very clean and welcoming and the welcome pack was wonderful, thank you. The trains didnât bother us and it was wonderful to see the steam trains each day as it was half term. The heater in the larger bedroom was not secure to the wall but it worked perfectly well. The garage for parking was very welcome too as it was raining when we arrived so we kept dry while unpacking the car. I will certainly go back but maybe try a different property.

The facilities were also very modern, however we couldnât get the hall radiator to work (it was quite cold during our stay). Our party consisted of just 2 adults and we found the bedrooms very small and storage space for clothing limited, it would be a very tight squeeze for a family.

Great accommodation, they've thought of everything and provided good quality crockery, cutlery, linen, appliances and other items. Undercover parking works well. Accommodation is close enough to the town & attractions to walk, but it is a quiet location away from the crowds. A handful of trains every day (none too early or too late) running literally outside the window add to the excitement for everyone.
