We had an excellent week. We appreciated the parking and the walk in shower cubicle. The bed was comfortable and it was a quiet location but within easy reach of the town centre.My only negative comment is that the sofa was very low - not easy to get out of!

While the accommodation was very clean, in an excellent location and the equipment of a good standard we were rather surprised to find we were in a basement with very limited daylight. I note it says lower level but this, in our opinion, does not give the true picture. We did actually leave a night early as the bedroom felt damp so much so we slept very little.
