The location is perfect unfortunately the accommodation left a lot to be desired.The main problem was the overall cleanliness, stains on the sofa cushions hidden by throws, floor dirty even though there was a mop in the wardrobe and the walkway to the bathroom/bedrooms looked like it hadn't been hoovered since the van was new. We're not usually the type to leave negative comments but this was really poor.
