This was disappointing as the second bedroom was not so nicely furnished.

The apartment is well equipped and the bathrooms are nice. The cake, wine and pint of milk on arrival were a nice surprise and appreciated. The only downside was the master bedroom. The bed is a double and my husband is 6ft and I'm 5ft8. It was a struggle to sleep well. A king-size bed would fit if chest of drawers and one bedside cabinet removed as plenty of space in the wardrobe for clothes. Otherwise, a lovely apartment.

This was one of the best we have stayed in. Clean and was lovely. The only criticism would be the beds which could be a bit more comfortable and a bigger one in the main bedroom. We all loved it and so did our dog Winnie. Thank you also for the welcome gifts
