Facilities are generally well-received, with praise for the kitchen and entertainment options. Some maintenance issues were mentioned, such as a tricky key safe and the need for updates to certain items, but these do not seem to detract significantly from the overall quality.

It is also really well located and despite being quite high up the road access is really good and simple to drive. The box of games/sports equipment was a nice touch too. The kitchen had everything you might need and the little welcome pack of goodies was lovely. The only negative thing I have to say is that the master bedroom was very warm, even with the fan on and despite having huge impressive windows, they donât open so the only ventilation option is to leave the patio door open which I wasnât comfortable with while I was sleeping. Having said that, I would love to stay here again because everything else was perfect!
