This is the third time we have stayed at Far View One and have returned because it is comfortable and the location is so good.

Great location. Despite being surrounded by other apartments and houses etc it was very quiet.

The apartment is in a good location. It was clean, well equipped and very quiet. The bed was wonderfully comfortable though the sole sofa we found to be almost unusable and there was no other comfortable seating. The place needs a complete updating and refurbishment. The decor and flooring feel dated. The outside space is one small table and 2 chairs, both of which were dirty. They are supposed to be shared with the other flat but this would be impossible.
