One drawback, the traffic noise, which was quite loud in the front and one of the rear bedrooms. A very secure property with a nice outside area, which was also good for our dogs. Wine supplied by the owner was well received. Thank you

The picturesque stream and play area behind was perfect for our family. With only a few minutes walk to the town one way and the supermarket the other it couldn't have been better. We had a lovely week and can definitely recommend.
