It is a very clean comfortable place, cosy for sure. The location is superb, with the added bonus of a safe and secure parking space. We would recommend Meadow Rue for location, comfort and cleanliness. Thank you.

It has everything you would need. It even has its own secure parking space suitable for medium sized cars. It would have been nice to be able to control the heating which was pre-set by the owner.
