It was lovely to be welcomed by Steve and Brenda. There was even a pint of milk and a bottle of wine in the fridge. Steve checked in with us a few times to see if we needed anything. We couldn't get the shower to work so Steve fixed it immediately. The kitchen and bathroom had everything needed for cleaning and washing up etc. It was lovely and clean.

There are museums, coastal little quaint towns and excellent cream teas to be had.
