Mrs Tranter
Beautifully well presented apartment. Nicely furnished and kitted out with everything that you could require. Love the matching crockery and cutlery sets as these are often mismatch in houses you rent. The view is amazing. The bed was very comfortable. Felt very much at home here. Thank you. Trudi and Philip Tranter.

This flat has the wow factor the view is absolutely stunning. The flat was spotless with everything you need for a holiday let . It was in a quiet location and was spacious and comfortable. The only little niggle was it got extremely hot but opening the sash windows from the top rectified this . The pint of milk and the few tea bags and coffe sachets and of course the cookies were a lovely touch . I would definitely recommend this flat . And also it is quite a steep hill up to the flat it certainly kept my fitness levels up . .
