Fabulous location right on High Street close to all facilities, pubs,restaurants,shops etc. Lovely little house with great facilities. A little tired in places but that does not effect enjoyment. 2 good doubles and 1 room of twin beds. Kitchen facilitues great with good supply of equipment. Little courtyard out the back with direct access to parking. This house made a real fun family Christmas and would definitely book again.
