1night stay

Pros: Clean and in a good location Booked as was attending a wedding nearby, although we parked the car at property, we didn't actually go in until much later. We didn't get to really use the property other than a bed for the night but found everything to be excellent.

Anthony 8/10

Pros: The location was excellent for the town centre. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped. The bathroom was large. The bedrooms were nice. I'm glad there was a downstairs toilet as one bathroom to 4 bedrooms is not ideal, shame there isn't a hand basin and you have to go down to the kitchen to wash your hands though.

Cons: The lounge was small, thankfully only 5 of us were staying, so only one of us needed to bring in a dining chair to sit on. But I think if full occupancy of 8 were staying it would be difficult. Again the dining room and table was fine for 5 and would be doable for 6, but 8 would be almost impossible. The car parking at the side said in the email 4 cars? Thankfully we only had one, because someone has parked an old Morris Minor halfway down the drive making it only possible to get one more car on the side of the house. The yard at the rear could be a fantastic outside space if it had a modicum of time and money spent on it. We had to take out the dining room chairs and sit there as it was too hot in the house.

Very pleasant house, well equipped, excellent location - traffic noise a possible issue

Pros: Excellent location. 10 minutes walk to very centre of the beautiful and historic town, right opposite Abbey, etc. Nice house, very clean, large kitchen, well equiped. Bedding, towels etc all seemd to be good quality and spotless. 4 double bedrooms, large bathroom with bath and shower, small living room and sepaarte small dining room. Good comms - very detailed - from owner. There is 3 hour free parking (8am to 6.30pm - available outside those hours too of course) ) right outside which we used without any problem finding a space, so fine if you are out during the day - also large car park behind property. House was siurprisingly cool in the 30C heat! All in all, we were very happy.

Cons: It is on a pretty busy road, no double glazing, so traffic noise might be an issue for some. Bring earplugs..Only one bathroom (and a ground floor small loo) so fine for 3 of us, might be a struggle if there were 8 in the house. There appears to be an ongoing argument with neighbours about whether parking is allowed in the side alley. but see above for alternatives. Small 'yard' at the back but not really any usable outdoor space. Nothing in the way of store cupboard items or 'personal touches' which you might get in some Airbnbs - just basic tea, coffee and a few little cartons of UHT milk. So bring all your own stuff if you are going to cook. But so many good eating out options in town we didn't worry about that!

Great location, basic amenities

Pros: Good location with public car park next door. House access very straightforward. Spacious property.

Cons: Very basic without any ‘home touches’. Bare minimum I would say which for the price was a bit of a surprise. Small touches would go a long way. Also dishwasher was full (clean but unemptied) on arrival so took ages to find mugs!
