The host was quick to respond and very helpful when we forgot the keys at home. We got loads of helpful information prior to our stay, which helped plan our days in Staffordshire. Place is highly recommended.

One toilet/bathroom which is downstairs proves difficult when visiting during the night as the stairs are narrow and steep, not recommended for anyone with even slight mobility problems. Very small tv for 2023, would suggest checking the tv operation between rentals as it was not tuned in and took considerable time to sort out. WIFI password should be included in the information file. Bath plug and sink plug do not seal, toilet seat I was loose.
