Reviewed Aug 17, 2026The location and houses in the area are beautiful. The bed was exceptionally comfortable.
The toilet is in the kitchen! This is totally unacceptable! The bath is dangerous. The wall that one has to climb over to get into the bath is too wide. There are no grab rails for the shower in the bath. Hazardous! This is an upmarket building with plenty of space to alter and fix this.
