This place is a lesson in you get what you paid for.Poorly equipped kitchenMattress and pillow protectors stainedLinen substandardThe main dehumidifier in the living space, whilst I’m assured is necessary, was extremely irritating.Will not be using again and would not recommend it to friends or family.

The location of this apartment is top notch. West Burton is a lovely, peaceful village off the beaten track, although it does have a nice pub, a butcher, and a little shop and a tea-room. The surrounding countryside is beautiful, with walks in all directions to other nice villages and pubs. The apartment is well-maintained and we enjoyed our stay. The only down-side is the dampness in the air. This is a third-floor apartment, so can't have rising damp; I'm guessing it is mostly condensation from a very damp environment, with the cauldron waterfall and river very close by. The owner has installed dehumidifiers, and they work very well, but there is still a little sensation of dampness that you have to get used to. That said, we did like the place, and had a great week.
