Very clean and spacious
Extremely clean and in good working order. Linen and sheets all crispy clean. Very spacious layout. We booked a queen bed and twin bed set up for 3 people and we were not falling over each other or our bags. Table was set for 3. Tea and coffee making was included with ample tea bags for 2 days for 3 people and a complimentary pack of biscuits - a very nice touch. Also included were 2 small tetra pack of milk. Kitchen kit for cleaning came in sealed packs.
