Great friendly staff. Good sized apartment. Overall great stay with a lovely village location. Park very close for exercising our dog (must be on leads, which suits ours) Apartment requires a little upgrading work ;just pipes out of the bathroom wall no radiator/towel rail with no where to hang towels in bathroom, some water marks in hallway from upstairs ( we presume) and some stains to carpet and minor stains on couch. My daughter struggled with the zip together bed middle ridges and felt the mattress slipped to the front opening side. All in all we did enjoy the stay and would stay again. Thanks
