Reviewed Aug 20, 2026Was renovated with modern appliances...good amount of space in the room...the outside light stayed on all-night so that was great as it was quite dark . Also food shop was right next door so very convenient . Reception lady was nice
Shower went cold for my daughter and myself in <5 minutes.. old shower which had low water pressure . There was no fence at the back so no privacy with the homes across the field, as no nets unless you closed the curtains in the middle of the day. Kitchen lights were dark while we were trying to eat in the dining room. It was a cold winters night but the heater took hours to warm up as it was a fancy digital heater.. Final issue was tv remote wasn't working well so didn't get to watch much on TV.. hopefully this will be taken as constructive feedback if we come back and these issues were fixed id give 10/10

Upon arrival, there wasn't a great deal of paper left on the toilet roll, which meant we ran out of paper on the last day. The outside light remained on all night. We had to close the bathroom door to sleep in darkness.
