Stunning property

Beautiful house/apartment. Plenty of matching quality crockery, cutlery and glasses. Loads of seating in lounge and dining area. Beds firm. Bedding and rooms spotless. We had no problems with neighbours or parking Phil was ace contact and kept appropriate and helpful contact before and at our arrival. A real asset. Small niggles: Personally I would prefer a mattress protector. Bathroom bins to be plastic (metal ones rusting) and inner bagged. Toilets to be clean and bleached... Baking sheets needed Surface cleaner required just to wipe down kitchen when we made a mess after cooking... Bought our own.
