Jan 5, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location, plenty of space! Scott was great to deal with from our very first communication. Very responsive and helpful.Our stay started on Boxing Day and unfortunately the cleaners Scott had arranged to clean the property that morning, did not show up. Scott did his very best at the 11th hour to present the property as best as possible, in a very short space of time, prior to our arrival. I felt really sorry for the stress he had to go through on Boxing Day!Great location! Everything you need very close by. Would happily stay again. ##### Clare B.
