On street parking can be difficult as it is situated in the middle of a housing estate. Furniture could do updating as it’s rather tatty and some of it a bit wobbly. Property is for upto 6 people but only seating in the lounge area for 4\. 2 good bathrooms and downstairs WC. Nice big fridge/freezer if you’re planning on self catering. ##### Jacqueline Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### p May 1, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, communication #### Nice clean place Nice place, Bedding was nice and fresh for the price it was perfect. ##### p Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2022 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [The Flying Bull Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Liss-Hotels-The-Flying-Bull-Inn.h25677205.Hotel-Information) > - [The Beach House](https://www.expedia.ca/Newquay-Hotels-The-Beach-House.h26990072.Hotel-Information) > - [Red Lion Todwick by Chef and Brewer Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Sheffield-Hotels-Red-Lion-Todwick-By-Greene-King-Inns.h2621699.Hotel-Information) > - [The Castle Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Harrogate-Hotels-The-Castle-Inn.h22881785.Hotel-Information) > - [The Coach House Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Oakham-Hotels-The-Coach-House-Inn.h19687100.Hotel-Information) > - [Greenhill Farm Barn B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Banbury-Hotels-Greenhill-Farm-Barn-BB.h30105240.Hotel-Information) > - [Luxury Beach House Rental with Hot Tub, 30 meters to Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Looe-Hotels-Luxury-Beach-House-Rental-With-Hot-Tub.h27313935.Hotel-Information) > - [Wheal Tor](https://www.expedia.ca/Liskeard-Hotels-Wheal-Tor.h901037.Hotel-Information) > - [THE PIG at Harlyn Bay - Cornwall](https://www.expedia.ca/Padstow-Hotels-THE-PIG-At-Harlyn-Bay.h102933925.Hotel-Information) > - [Wild Boar Estate](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-The-Wild-Boar.h20698.Hotel-Information) > - [Lakeside Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Norwich-Hotels-Lakeside-Lodge.h31001547.Hotel-Information) > - [Cosy Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Northallerton-Hotels-Cosy-Cottage.h31001064.Hotel-Information) > - [The Loft](https://www.expedia.ca/Holsworthy-Hotels-The-Loft.h26996248.Hotel-Information) > - [The Sails a beautifully presented chalet bungalow with](https://www.expedia.ca/Chichester-Hotels-The-Sails-A-Beautifully-Presented-Chalet-Bungalow-With.h95118395.Hotel-Information) > - [Mosh Homes](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-LOVELY-PLACE-TO-BE.h44353906.Hotel-Information) > - [The Derwent Manor Boutique Hotel ](https://www.expedia.ca/Consett-Hotels-The-Derwent-Manor-Boutique-Hotel.h9535.Hotel-Information) > - [The Dairy](https://www.expedia.ca/Keighley-Hotels-The-Dairy.h31000303.Hotel-Information) > - [1 bedroom accommodation in Steeple Ashton, near Trowbridge](https://www.expedia.ca/Trowbridge-Hotels-1-Bedroom-Accommodation-In-Steeple-Ashton.h35262947.Hotel-Information) > - [2 bedroom accommodation in Muker near Reeth](https://www.expedia.ca/Richmond-Hotels-2-Bedroom-Accommodation-In-Muker-Near-Reeth.h32928411.Hotel-Information) > - [A sudeley castle cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-George-III-Sleeps-4-Guests-In-2-Bedrooms.h21786542.Hotel-Information) > - [Cliveden House](https://www.expedia.ca/Maidenhead-Hotels-Cliveden.h518646.Hotel-Information) > - [The Hawkley Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Liss-Hotels-The-Hawkley-Inn.h4383820.Hotel-Information) > - [The Kings Arms](https://www.expedia.ca/Penzance-Hotels-Kings-Arms-Inn.h23548574.Hotel-Information) > - [The Feathered Nest Country Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Chipping-Norton-Hotels-The-Feathered-Nest.h44085381.Hotel-Information) > - [Stonehenge Courtyard](https://www.expedia.ca/Stonehenge-Courtyard.h97558122.Hotel-Information) > - [Black Bull Bellingham](https://www.expedia.ca/Hexham-Hotels-Black-Bull-Bellingham.h4869733.Hotel-Information) > - [Cowley Manor Experimental](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-Cowley-Manor.h1662540.Hotel-Information) > - [Red Lion Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Ambleside-Hotels-Red-Lion-Inn.h99375254.Hotel-Information) > - [Hyll Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Chipping-Campden-Hotels-Classic-Lodges-Charingworth-Manor.h517248.Hotel-Information)
