Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The host was very friendly and welcoming to us! The location is great - our room was back from the road so we didn't hear the traffic. The room was spacious and the beds were comfortable. It had a small fridge, microwave, jug etc that we needed. It was a hot day but the room cooled down quickly - I noticed there were heater for when it's cold too. Overall we really liked this place, thank you for having us
Negative: Just a couple of thing - 1) The shower didn't work. It put out water that was either scalding hot or very cold, despite following the instructions that were given. I could only splash myself, not have a shower, and the kids had to skip one. For 1 night it was ok to skip a shower but I would have been disappointed to have to skip bathing for 2 or more days. 2) The walls are quite thin - I could hear every time the couple next to us spoke. Thankfully they were pretty quiet (as were we) but I could see that it would have been hard to sleep if they had been noisier.
Summary: A lovely place to stay with just a few downsides

Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Close to the town centre and Caroline Bay. Fair price
Negative: Close to the main road and single glazed so the noise of the traffic in the front unit was loud all night long. Electric shower in the unit was hard to get to the right temperature so gave up and the toilet didn’t flush effectively so you had to flush 3 times to get it clean
Summary: Fair price and good location. Unit just needed a slight upgrade

Positive: The rooms were nice and the bed was comfy. We had a good night and it was really good that we could bring our little dog.
