Having stayed twice at this property there are several cups/bowls that are chipped/cracked. I didn’t report on this after my first visit so in the event they hadn’t been replaced this time I took my own cups. A great location and lovely home this was the only negative.

This property is in a quiet residential area a short walk to the town and an even shorter walk to the canal. There was plenty of space for us (4 adults and a toddler) and the house is well equipped and comfortable. The host was very generous with the welcome pack of goodies. The only downside is that there are quite a few marks on surfaces and damage to carpets etc and the house could do with a refresh. But this did not affect our stay.
