Thè T.V was placed on a small table where you had to look down from the bed. If T.V had been placed on wall in a higher position, it would have looked more inviting. Also, the T.V took up space on the small table/shelf which could have had either the crockery or toaster and jug placed on it so that they were all crammed into the little shelf they were placed on.

Doreen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was ideal as a stopover. Everything was clean and ready for us - thank you to our hosts. As a studio unit, there is not a full kitchen (to wash dishes) but toaster, jug and fridge were ideal. Mattress firm and very comfortable. Outside private spa bath was lovely, it rained overnight andbit was awesome sitting in the tub under small shelter roof and watching rain fall.
