The listing's exterior photos are very misleading, suggesting space and great views! Unfortunately the reality is largely a building site surrounding the property (please see photos). Internally the property is generally functional. However, several things are tired e.g. chipped/cracked mugs, delaminating kitchen cupboards etc. It sadly holds the title of most disappointing accommodation we've stayed in!
